Hi Stefan,

The personal file is an ordinary text file. You can look at it,
and create your own.
What you're suggesting doesn't need to be a personal file. The
personal file is suppose to be a writeable file which is managed
as part of correcting a document.
You could define your dictionary as a .multi file which lists
some .rws files (compiled word lists). One of the .rws files
would
be the your compiled current tags file. See how the aspell
utility program supports the create master file to see how to
compile a word list.

Hope that helps!
Gary
