Re: Re: ispell or aspell for french spelling
thank you for reply, But I am using a precompiled lyx.deb, so I can't
recompile it.
In the preferences I check the aspell, but the problem stays.
Another thing, Can I find ispell for french-language?

LyX uses two different ways to try and check your document.
1. If your version of LyX was compiled to use the 'pspell' package, then
it will use the pspell library routines unconditionally. In the LyX 1.3.x
series, you'll need to state explicitly that you want to use pspell when
you configure the build process:
$ ./configure --help | grep spell
--with-pspell use PSpell libraries
--with-pspell-include where the pspell.h is located
--with-pspell-lib where the libpspell.a is located
You can check whether your version of LyX was compiled in this way with:
$ ldd <path to your executable>/lyx
If 'libpspell' is in the output then that is what you'll use.
2. The rest of us must communicate with an external executable named
either "ispell" or "aspell" (or if you speak Hebrew, hspell). You can set
this name from the Edit->Preferences dialog.
(Language settings->Spellchecker pane.)
This option is not available to Windows users because the way LyX
currently communicates with external processes is definitely unix-centric.
That is, spellchecking on Windows currently requires the pspell libraries
(which is the better way to go anyway.)
HTH,
