Dear Tyler,

Thanks for your response. Yes, I had read that document, but as far as I can
understand it, that only talks about standard spelling dictionaries. What
I'm talking about is personal spelling dictionaries, like the "User.dic"
file in WinEdt. I tried putting it in the same folder as the other dic/aff
files, but it was not recognized.

And when I right-clicked the underlined words, there was only an option to
ignore, not to add.

It seems to me like that there is no personal dictionary option.

Dear Helmer,

Section 4.1 of the *Short manal for TeXworks*  by Alain Delmotte (find it
and download it) discusses how to add spell-check capability. You basically
have to add your dictionary files to a local TexWorks folder.

I did this, and it works very well.

Best regards,

Tyler Estler
