The Aspell format is (AFAIK): 1 file per language (e. g. $HOME/.aspell.en.pwl or $HOME/.aspell.de-alt.pwl) Every file has: 1 header line (containing format, language and count of items) and n lines per word (char set is the current one, aka undefined) The LyX format is: 1 file per language as of - FileName dictfile = FileName(addName(package().user_support().absFileName(),"pwl_" + lang.lang() + ".dict")) at my machine that's e. g. "/Users/stephan/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.0/pwl_english.dict" 1 header line with the fixed string "# personal word list" n lines per word (char set is utf-8) So the task would have the following sub-tasks: 1. iterate the personal word lists the user has (for all languages) 2. detect the appropriate char set 3. look up the LyX language name from lib/languages LangCode => Language, e. g. LangCode=pt_BR => Language brazilian 4. create the word list file with the fixed header line and copy the contents with char set conversion Stephan
