[Aspell-user] Aspell dictionaries for Mac OSX

[Jim Ereaux]

Hi,

I developed several Unicode/Opentype fonts for the Salish and  
Kootenai alphabets and now want to work on a dictionary to support  
these fonts. I'm brand new to dictionaries, so I need some assistance  
learning about Aspell. It appears that cocoAspell may be a good  
solution for adding a dictionary to Mac OSX spelling services. What I  
need to do now is create both  Salish and a Kootenai dictionaries  
that are based on Aspell. However, after reviewing the information on  
the Aspell site, I don't know what I specifically need to do to  
accomplish this on a Mac. I saw instructions on how to use Fink to  
install Aspell...but I don't believe I need to do this as I already  
have cocoAspell. Do I need to install X11 and then run Aspell from  
within that to create a dictionary?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Fred
