spellcheck failure

2003-02-19 Thread Dr. Richard E. Hawkins
I haven't seen anything like this in a while.

February 6 devel, plain old xforms (does anything else actually work,
anyway?)

I tried to spellcheck my file, lyx hung for about 15 seconds.  gdb
shows:

Error: The file /home/hawk/Research/Price/price.dict is not in the
proper format.
Ispell read timed out, what now?


Given that lyx created that dictionary file, and has been using it for
weeks, something is amiss . . . 

OK, even worse:  the file is now empty!
