If that location is different, please specify it in --with-pspell=PATH, where PATH is the path you specified for pspell libraries. + +Notes on personalized dictionaries +---------------------------------- + +It is now possible to have personalized dictionaries with pspell. This is +acheived by openeing a dictionary with pspell_new_personal() rather than +pspell_new() and secifying the custom dictionary as the first parameter. +The parameter probably should begin with '/' because otherwise it will +refer to $HOME, which is probably set to "/root", which is probably not +what you want because you need write access for nobody to be able to write +to a dictionary. Once the dictionary is open, you can use +pspell_add_to_personal() to add words to the wordlist and finally +pspell_save_wordlist() to save it. + +Note that at this moment pspell_save_wordlist() will return TRUE, even if +there was an error. This will be changed once pspell library is fixed. \ No newline at end of file -- 2.50.1
