Hmm, sounds like you're one step away from doing what I had to do to
Australianise dictionaries on computers: Load in a perfectly spelt
document with common spell-check problem words, run the spell checker,
and add every word to the user dictionary.
But back to your situation... Does that mean it can't *find* any
installed dictionary file, or its not using it?
The original problem was that I couldn't even install the dictionary, so
I only had US English as an option. However, even with that selected,
every single word was marked as an error (underlined in red), and since
there isn't *that* much difference between UK and US English, that was a
problem in itself.
Running tb as root, I was able to install the UK English language pack,
and "English/United Kingdom" is now the "Language" setting on
Preferences/Composition/Spelling.
However, I still have the problem that every single word is underlined
as an error. So tb appears not be actually be using the dictionary at
all. Using "Add to dictionary" from the context menu does make the red
lines go away for the selected word though.
