I'm a bit confused as to how aspell works with dictionaries:
The online manual mentions "word lists" and dictionaries. What's the difference between the two?
If during a spell check I press "I" to add the new word, to which dictionary is it added? I checked
~/.aspell.en.pws
but it's not added there.The online help mentions it's possible to dump the "personal" word list:
aspell dump personal
But when I do this I get an error message:Unhandled Error: The file /home/pc/.aspell.en_US.per can not be opened for reading. Aborted
And I couldn't find any reference in the online help to this .per
file. What does it do?.
What's the difference between the "personal" word list and the ~/.aspell.en_US.pws
file?
