The reason I am sending this to the User list is that
the developer (Marc) server seems to be down again
and there is some news of relevance to WinLyx users.
The new Aspell dictionaries and data installer which
works great if you follow the default is just about ready.

Ok, Joost, Stephen. Please check out
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Aspell6
where you'll find the new version of
all files. At least, I assume you will in
about 1 hour. Files are currently uploading.
If you can confirm that all is well with
these, then I'll move on to LyX itself.
Regards,
Angus

SH: Original message to developer list:
Everything seems to work. I started with a clean C:\aspell
and installed the new Aspell data files first, as customary.
The *.cmap/cset etc. were installed to C:\Aspell\lib\aspell-0.60
as I think they are supposed to be. But the default on the installer
reads C:\Aspell. Should this default read C:\Aspell\lib\aspell-0.60
like the default for the dictionary install? It doesn't work to change
the default data install to C:\Aspell\lib\aspell-0.60 because an extra
\lib gets inserted, so a user needs to keep the default of C:\Aspell.
the bottom line is use the default, whatever it is,
Stephen
