I tried loading the UK dictionary and indeed it does *not* work
under my installation of vDosXy. I don't know why. I can only guess
that the implementation of EMS in vDos is nonstandard in some
respect or other. If so, it means that none of the non-U.S.
Microlytics spelling dictionaries is operable under vDosXy. That's a
major loss, and one I hope that Peter a/k/a CatastrophicAnomaly, the
author of the vDosXy fork, can be persuaded to address.

Thanks, Paul, for bringing this to light.
