I don't share the same idea with you, there will be a need for setting a backend in any way. Just for an example, I use newly added zpspell (zemberek) backend while I write in Turkish and Ispell (currently) in English. I like the KSpell2 way but having a common backend mechanism for all desktops has benefits (if this is the reason for considering Enchant as an option). regards, -- Baris Metin http://www.metin.org --xXmbgvnjoT4axfJE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: http://metin.org iD8DBQFCbolTQY59PDyY1JsRAifVAJ9xlrjlE42+S+u2ifs3ABv5qdahtgCfeO+Y iq3xmVAa5+xJsNHIvwrQb0w= =37Y3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --xXmbgvnjoT4axfJE--
