That's a good summary of my work, thanks. :-) The current state for LyX 2.0 beta2 is a working internal personal dictionary at a fixed location inside your LyX users directory. Now adding and removing of words works for me with aspell and hunspell with the internal personal dictionary on Linux and Mac OS X (Windows I couldn't test). Next I want to make the location of the personal dictionary more flexible. For LyX 1.6.9 I'll have a look at #6688 - I didn't see it earlier. As I understand it the path to personal dictionary is used in 1.6.x for ispell (and external aspell?) only. And of course one should be able to clear the input field and save that. Stephan
