This depends on the language.
New english words goes into the hidden file file .aspell.en.pws
New norwegian words goes into the file .aspell.nb.pws
and so on. Each language has a code of its own.
No privileges are needed, as the files are stored in
your home directory.
I have two sets of pws files (which btw are named simply en.pws not
.aspell.en.pws) and this I think depends on the mess i made with
multiple aspell installation!
the newest pws files are in "documents and settings\all
users\application data\aspell\personal" that is, afaik, supposed to be
a shared folder. but I logged as an administrator and checked if my
non-admin account has the rights to change the folder, and it does
not. So I changed this setting and aspell seems to record the words
now when I use LyX as a normal user.
OT: It is annoying having to change the right settings on all folders
you use as a non-administrator user (I had to do so with many other
programs, and for some of them it didn't even work). but this is a
windows-related issue (at least on XP) - not aspell's or LyX's!
