    I think I did that. The contents of /usr/lib/ispell are dictionaries:

    american.aff americanxlg.hash english.hash ispell-emacs-menu.el
    american.hash emacs espanol.aff spanish.aff
    americanmed.hash english.aff espanol.hash spanish.hash

    So, let's say, 'cp -r /usr/lib/ispell/ /home/alex/.enchant/' would copy the
    contents of ispell directory to ~/.enchant/ispell/

    Likewise, /usr/share/myspell contains en_US.aff en_US.dic es_ES.aff
    es_ES.dic, so I copied the contents of it to ~/.enchant/myspell/:

    cp -r /usr/share/myspell/ /home/alex/.enchant/

    Did I misunderstand something? 'cause I still can't spellcheck, neither in
    English (en_US) nor Spanish (es_ES)

    Best Regards,

    Alex.
