[gentoo-user] OpenOffice / localisation

[Uwe Thiem <uwix@iway.na>]

Hi folks,

I've got a couple of questions regarding localisation.

1. OO and English
If I set OO to either British or South African English the spellchecker still 
accepts American spelling which is wrong in Namibia. Anybody in the know how 
to make it stick to British spelling?

2. OO and currency
The Namibian Dollar (either NAD or N$) is missing from the list of currencies. 
Is it possible to add a new one to OO?

3. KDE and aspell
I emerged aspell-af, aspell-de, aspell-en and aspell-pt. KDE's control centre 
shows a whole plethora of languages, some of them looking like "English 
(United Kingdom - ise-w_accents-only)". I bet No user has got an idea what 
that means. In kmail on the other hand, most languages are shown as 
"Unknown". I would like to nail that down to:
British English
American English
German German   (no Swiss or Austrian German)
Portuguese Portuguese
Brazilian Portuguese
Afrikaans
with British English the default. Do I simply delete the other stuff 
under /usr/lib/aspell-0.60? Exactly what can I safely delete?

There is more but this should be enough for today. ;-)

Uwe
