PS. After a bit more searching in the Aspell txt file, I was able to
crack the second question. Apparently if the Command Console defaults
to cp1252, then Aspell functions in cp1252 as well. It took a little
while to find out how to do this, but a registry hack later and I seem
to be in business.
Dear Carl
I tried to use ASPLFR which I had thought would allow me to to spell
check a French document at the weekend but it it didn't, and looking at
the help file I think perhaps it will not. Is there a way of invoking
the French dictionary from the command line, or from a keyboard
shortcut? My default, set in the registry, is UK English.
And ... do you know if there is any way of getting Aspell to operate
with CP1252? I had a look through the Aspell txt file over the weekend.
There was one option that appeared useful which I applied as:
" --encoding=cp1252"
ie:"Aspell_Options=--master=en_GB-w-accents --sug-mode=bad-spellers
--encoding=cp1252"
added to the end of my registry entry. This stopped Aspell running, or
rather it went straight to the ".. ESC to exit" message on the status
bar. It works fine without the addition.
Sorry to have to fall back on your expertise for this but I don't know
enough about Aspell to know if I am doing something wrong, or if this
option simply does nothing useful (I suspect the latter).
Thanks
Paul
