Re: [libreoffice-users] testing out 2 new large word list English dictionaries.

Hi :)
I think you have choices.  I think you can just double-click on an oxt file and that installs it in 
LibreOffice or else open Writer or something and click on

Tools - "Extensions Manager" - Add

and then browse to where-ever you downloaded or saved the file to.  I could be wrong but i heard 
that one of the list might have incorrectly put .zip instead of .oxt at the end of the file.  I'm 
not sure how to handle that if it has except to try one of the other lists of words and see if that 
seems to have the same problem (unlikely).  
Regards from
Tom :)
