Installing Pidgin 2.6.6 with Spell checker failed.
My Windows 7 toybox had an older version of Pidgin installed (and for some reason, Aspell wasn't installed at that time). I noticed that Aspell wasn't installed while installing Pidgin 2.6.6, so I selected it to install Aspell, but the installation kept failing (unknown why, I'm guessing that the Pidgin website was either busy, my connection was timing out, or the Internet gods were mad at me again). I was finally able to read the FAQ pertaining to installing Aspell manually and got Aspell installed. The Pidgin FAQ doesn't state how to get Aspell working with Pidgin (or VIS-A-VIS). My question is ...how to get Pidgin working with Aspell? Thanks ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe? Use this link: http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

Thanks My guess (and what I would do barring another, easier solution) would be to either try a repair install or uninstalling/reinstalling. I've never had a problem with spell check installing but I haven't installed/updated since the last release. -- Yours In Christ, PIT Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.

You need to have both Aspell and the appropriate language dictionary (the language in which Pidgin is running) installed, then it should just work. -D ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
