Re: Gemas : failed to get the spellserver [RESOLVED]

[Patrick Cardona]

Hi Wolfgang,

The GSspell.service exists. And I could run it to initialize it :

pi@raspberrypi:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Services/GSspell.service $ opentool GSspell
2020-05-27 22:09:14.773 GSspell[5542:5542] NSLanguages = (SwitzerlandFrench, 
AustraliaEnglish, French, AmericanEnglish, BritainEnglish, English, 
CanadaEnglish)

CanadaEnglish
2020-05-27 22:09:15.122 GSspell[5542:5542] Spell server started and waiting.

And then, the service was available for the French spelling within Gemas  :

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ opentool Gemas
