2138.0. "Adding British Dictionary to US V2.4 System?" by IAMOK::ALLIN1 () Thu Jan 21 1993 18:25

    This note has also been posted in WPS-PLUS-V3 conference but there has
    been no response.
    
    I've received a request to add the British Spell Check Dictionary to
    our ALL-IN-1 V2.4 cluster (US Version).  In the ALL-IN-1 documentation
    it mentions that additional dictionaries can be added after obtaining
    the lexicons for the desired dictionary.
    
    I've read through several ntoes, but it's not apparent how to obtain
    the British dictionary and/or how to make it accessible to users along
    with the American/English dictionary.  This is a cluster of internal
    DEC users.
    
    1. How do I obtain the British Spell check dictionary lexicon? Do we
       have to order it or is it available through the net?
    
    2. How do I make it accessible - do I have to install a multi-language
       version of WPS-PLUS in ALL-IN-1?
    
    3. Is there anything the user has to do to select the British version
       after it's installed?
    
    4. What happens when I upgrade to ALL-IN-1 V3.0 - will the British
       dictionary still work that was installed under V2.4?
    
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,

    I think its just one file : SYS$SHARE:LNGSPLBE2.LGS
    
    You can have mine if you want.
    
>    2. How do I make it accessible - do I have to install a multi-language
>       version of WPS-PLUS in ALL-IN-1?
    
    No. A user can ChangeMasterDictionary (CMD). ALL-IN-1 will
    check for the available lexicons.
    
>    3. Is there anything the user has to do to select the British version

    Yes. See 3.

    No. With ALL-IN-1 3.0 you will have version 4.x of WPS-PLUS.
    This means new dictionaries. 
    Product is called : International Lexicons for VMS, V1.1  and 
    can be found in MAGIC"INTLEX"::INTLEX011.* .

    Theoretically, you should only obtain the extra dictionary by "some
    official" route so that Houghton Mifflin, who supply the dictionaries,
    get the royalties. Perhaps we have a deal with them that all internal
    uses are covered by some global licence....
