I have just installed lyx 1.4.3-5 on WinXP. However I can't get aspell
to work.
What I do is:
1. uninstall old Lyx
2. install new LyX - this creates aspell directory in c:\
3. install aspell dictionaries
4. copy files from Aspell\lib\aspell-0.60 to Aspell\Dictionaries
When I try checking spelling Lyx says:
"The spellchecker could not be started
No word lists can be found for the language "en_US"."
Any suggestions?
Thank you

Did you also install
http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/Windows/Aspell6/aspelldata-0.60.4-root.exe?
I've been told that this is no longer necessary in LyX 1.4.3 (it was
necessary with LyX 1.4.1), but I'm not entirely convinced. If not, try it
(and then repeat step 4 above if any new files were created in
Aspell\lib\aspell-0.60).

I tried that too. Interestingly, spellchecker worked in lyx1.4.3-4 but
stopped working as soon as I installed lyx1.4.3-5.
Since nobody else mentions this problem with aspell, I assume it has
something to do with my setup. Is there a way of seeing what Lyx is doing
when the spellchecker is called?
