Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: spell checking - corrected

Hi :)
Weird.  I thought i remembered Tim saying he had fixed it but then suddenly a load of us kinda 
pounced on him and created confusion.  

Still at least his dictionaries don't seem to be creating the types of breakages we are getting for 
the default dictionaries!  We seem to get about 1 or 2 a week saying their spell-checker has 
stopped working but we don't seem to get that issue when people have  switched to the ones from the 
NA site.  
Apols and regards from
Tom :)

Really? Have you actually looked at the .dic file?

Nope. No 'offensive' there.

No offence, but it doesn't appear "fixed" to me.
