Hi list, as a supplement of the first mail (Installing Aspell and german dictionary separately after installing the bundle of LyX 1.5.1. for Windows XP):
It *must* be a problem with LyXs call of aspell. I tried everything, I can think of. Applying the correct path prefix, copying into th bin-directory of lyx (aspell is located in C:\Programs\Aspell), loading the pws-Dictionary (which is *not* in the dict-subdirectory of aspell; hmmm). Aspell works perfect under on the DOS-Console (if the file is in the Aspell-Directory), but with LyX there is only a great nothing: cannot find directory. Bang. I cannot find the slightest hint of the external call of aspell in any of the great manuals. Every external command of a converter can be checked. But with aspell? Nothing! I give up now! Under Linux it works very fine without any problems. But Windows? It is a pity! Regards Heiko -- Heiko Schroeder Praha, Ceska Republica http://home.foni.net/~heikos http://www.od.shuttle.de/evb-1
