no spellcheck in AbiwordForum: Apps Topic: no spellcheck in Abiword started by: timmy Posted by timmy on Jan. 19 2006,16:15
I used the myDSL extension manager to install Abiword as well as Abiword 2.2.7 from the GTK menu. With both versions, the spellcheck feature is non-functional. In fact, it appears to be disabled. Under Tools>Spelling>Spelling options, the "Highlight misspelled words" as well as "Always suggest corrections" and "suggest from main dictionary only" options under dictionaries are grayed out. Any idea what i can do to install a copy of Abiword with a functional spellcheck option, or repair the one I have?

I have observed the same thing with Abiword 2.2.7 (Gtk2) with DSL 2.1

I don't use abiword, never had any experience with it, but after 2 minutes of checking at the abiword website it became apparent that the spellcheck is a separate application (abispell), which would explain why it's not in DSL
