Hi,

I'm using KBabel version 1.01 at the moment. I ran spell check on a msg and
accidentally added a mispelled word. How can I remove that word from the user
dictionary?

Regards,
Malcolm

Thanks. Is that documented somewhere? Sorry, I couldn't find it in the KBabel
documentation. I could add a note in the documentation, if you like - I can't
believe I'm the only person that's done this - admittedly, the default button
has been changed in the latest version of KBabel, so it's less likely to
happen now.

No, it is an ispell feature handled via KSpell library - all KDE apps will
share the info.

If you'd like to add the note, feel free to do so (for example into FAQ).
KBabel docs are out of date unfortunatelly :-(

Ok. Wouldn't it make more sense to update the KSpell document, as this is the
help page that appears when you click on Help in the dialog? Something like:

Clicking on Add will add the misspelled word to your personal dictionary (this
is distinct from the original system dictionary, so the additions you make
will not be seen by other users).

Note: To remove a word from your personal dictionary, edit the file
.ispell_default in your home folder.


This is the file that appears when I "Add" a word from the dialog.

Malcolm

It is .ispell_default only for you. It is .ispell_LANGUAGE (e.g.
.ispell_italian here)

Thanks Andrea. I've been in touch with Zack Rusin who has put me right there
:¬). I've also done a bit of research on Ispell, Aspell and Hspell.
