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 -- 95% of all programmers rate themselves among the top 5% of all software developers. - Linus Torvalds http://www.uwix.iway.na (last updated: 20.06.2004) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
