Hi, I emerged eselect-oodict and it acts like it's doing something but still I don't see any dictionaries in
Tools->Options->Language Settings->Writing Aids Under Languages I have selected English (USA) Is there something else I have to turn on to get spell checking working for my wife? I do not see the entry this person has in the upper box. Why not? I seem to have hunspell installed and it says it's a replacement for myspell. Does it work? What's the special trick? Thanks, Mark dragonfly ~ # eselect oodict show OpenOffice.org configured dictionaries [1] myspell Configured language codes from /usr/share/myspell: en dragonfly ~ # eselect oodict unset myspell-en dragonfly ~ # eselect oodict show OpenOffice.org configured dictionaries (none) dragonfly ~ # eselect oodict set myspell-en dragonfly ~ # eselect oodict show OpenOffice.org configured dictionaries [1] myspell Configured language codes from /usr/share/myspell: en dragonfly ~ # dragonfly ~ # eix -Ic spell [I] app-dicts/aspell-en (6....@08/10/2007): English (US, British, Canadian) language dictionary for aspell [I] app-dicts/myspell-en (20081...@02/24/2009): English dictionaries for myspell/hunspell [I] app-text/aspell (0.6...@08/27/2007): A spell checker replacement for ispell [I] app-text/gnome-spell (1.0.8(1)@07/27/2008): Gnome spellchecking component [I] app-text/hunspell (1....@01/28/2009): Hunspell spell checker - an improved replacement for myspell in OOo.
