I can confirm these duplicate dictonaries with Firefox in Edgy. In my
case, I have the en_CA locale, and I have the same 4 options:
"en_US", "English/United States", "en_GB" and "English/United Kingdon";
but these 4 options should be really 2.
Wim ==> Firefox 2 has spell-checking when you enter text in a online
form. For a good example go at google.com, enter a search term, then
right click on the text area and you will have the chance to spell check
what you just typed. That's new with Firefox 2, and it works in Edgy by
default.
Ralf ==> US english and UK english are different for some words, thus
the 2 dictionaries. A word like color (US) and colour (British) have
different spelling in each country, thus depending on your country or
background, an user would need one or the other english dictionary.
