OK, NeoOffice installs the dictionary.lst file in ~/.openoffice.org2/
user/wordbook. Once I open it, I see the following:
# 07/17/2006 20:40:26
# 07/17/2006 20:40:33
# 07/17/2006 20:41:07
DICT el GR el_GR
HYPH el GR hyph_el_GR
# 07/17/2006 20:46:39
# 07/17/2006 20:47:14
Now, in this setup, NeoOffice works fine (and so does OpenOffice.org
2.0), but mine is a PowerPC Mac, not an Intel. My friend's Mac is
Intel, and I haven't had the chance to confirm the file locations
there, although I have no reason to suspect they are placed
elsewhere. I'll check and post back.
Anyone cares to interpret for me how the above text from
dictionary.lst shows that the files are installed in the correct dirs?

No. AIUI you will also have to edit a file named dictionary.lst
which says
which files to use for which languages. On Linux, this file is
either in the
users home area if the dictionaries are local to the user, or in
the system
area for globally known dictionaries. I've no idea about NeoOffice.

Since you are using NeoOffice, you will have to ask for assistance
at trinity.neooffice.org. We do not provide assistance for this
product at OpenOffice.org.

Subject: [users] Add greek language dictionary on OS X/NeoOffice?
I have successfully added the greek language dictionary and
hyphenation files on my PPC NeoOffice installation, but when I
tried
to help a friend on an Intel iMac do the same, NeoOffice insists on
showing Greek among its languages but not with the ABC icon next to
it; it doesn't hyphenate in greek, either.
Any idea what I'm supposed to do? I thought it was just a case of
dropping the necessary files in the proper dir locations.
PS My friends iMac is not on the Internet yet, so I can't use the
Install New Dictionaries... Wizard.
