The problem is that to make a new main dictionary I would have to remove all the words from spelling.dic by mergin a supplementary dictionary with '-' sing preceding all the words to be removed. This way it would work but I don't want to write 40000 words preceded with minus sign. There must be an easier way!! I have also tried to make a zero lenght file 'spelling.dic' but that didn't work either. So is there anyone who has already written foreign dictionaries for 1st Word+. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
