Hi :) Would it be reasonably easy to add a link to the Artha one on Tim's dictionary Extensions page? If that page could be a one-stop-shop it might be good for keeping track of all those things and a good one to sign-post people to. Regards from Tom :)

But if you need one to be used in LibreOffice, my set of English dictionaries have one that has over 140,000 word/phrase listings to get a result from. All you have to do is download and install one of my American English, British English, or Canadian English, .oxt files and install it through the Extension Manager. You can get them at the Extension Center http://extensions.libreoffice.org/ and look for the Dictionaries for any version. Or you can go to my portal and download them from there. http://libreoffice-na.us/English-3.4-installs/dictionary.html#english They start with "kpp" in the dictionary file list. There are a total of 11 dictionaries to choose from. All you have to do is choose the version of English [American, British, or Canadian], and choose the spelling word list count size [98K, 217K, 390K, and 638K words in the list]. You can install all of them, but only keep one of each English version enabled at a time. Hopefully, soon I will be uploading an update with about 1K of computer technical words and terms that were missing from these word lists. I have been busy so I will need a bit of time to make the updates available online in the Extension Center and my portal. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
