    Thank you, it is very considerate of you. Such a rare thing
nowadays! :)

    Unfortunately, I don't own a copy of Scientific Workplace. But
simply opening new document, entering math mode and typing in '\alpha'
is enough - instead of a letter, a square appears. I've just added this
information as a comment.

    I am not sure whether this bug is valid at all (that's why I haven't
entered it into Trac). From what I've read elsewhere, adding a word
successfully might somehow depend on whether rmb menu was used vs the
spellchecker window.

    There's something different going on, that's for sure. While I was
trying to reproduce BUG #3, I noticed, that for instance any word with
a Polish letter 'ś' is accepted as valid; the underline disappears
after adding this letter, but it does not always come back. It's kind of
difficult to describe.

    I've ATTACHED a .lyx file along with associated screenshot, but I
don't even know how to begin describing it. While trying to trigger this
problem in a more reproducible way, I've even encountered a crash after
simply cutting and pasting a line of text from this file.

    Seems like some kind of encoding bug (well, at least). I'd like to
help, but I don't know what is going on. Something is seriously broken,
that's for sure. If you are willing to try to fix this, please tell me
what and how to test, because I don't want to flood you with minor bug
reports, which will only blur the whole image.

    By the way, the GUI glitch after shrinking LyX window (visible on
the bottom of the screenshot) seems kind of funny; I haven't noticed
that bug before.

    Thank you for this info. Removing a word should obviously always be
possible, so it is strange that the aspell API does not cover this.

    BTW adding words only to a specific document and storing these in
.lyx file would be a nice feature to have...

See you next bug :)
