CocoAspell is good for international users
Authored by: BrentT on Apr 25, '02 08:46:47AM

Does CocoAspell have the ability to add custom dictionaries? I have a 91K Word dictionary file of medical terms I would like to use in other apps.

i don't think aspell can load more then 1 dictionary at the time (unlike excalibur) But I think you work around that by pasting your own list into the learned word list. I checked and it's just a text file, with words separated by Line feeds. You could use Tex-Edit plus to convert to that. location of the file is eg ~/Library/Spelling/Aspell/dutch (for the Dutch learned words).
BTW seem to me that Aspell does a better job than Apple's own speller at English too.
