From: Gerry on 18 Sep 2009 14:30 Is it possible to have two different dictionaries selected in TextEdit? I'm editing a document which contains lists of French songs which I would like to be able to spell check as well as the English information.

I think it'll be possible to use CocoAspell along with the built-in dictionary though it hasn't been updated since 2006... I don't know if it works with SnowLeopard, but I know it works just fine with Leopard 10.5.8. cocoAspell 2.0.4 configurable spell check service, multi-language http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/14748 cheers, Erik Richard -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Erik Richard Sørensen, Member of ADC, <mac-manNOSP(a)Mstofanet.dk> NisusWriter - The Future In Multilingual Text Processing - www.nisus.com OpenOffice.org - The Modern Productivity Solution - www.openoffice.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't know it this is recent or not, bur under snow leopard in Textedit you do have the choice of spell language; the only thing is, apparently you'll have to first check in english, then rescan your text in trench (unles there is a better setting, I just performed a quick test here) -- Fr�d�rique & Herv� Sainct, h.sainct(a)laposte.net [fr,es,en,it] Fr�d�rique's initial is missing in front of the above address l'initiale de Fr�d�rique manque devant l'adresse email ci-dessus

Do you have Pages? In Pages you can set the language per paragraph. -- Paul Sture |
