I've downloaded cocoAspell from the github
https://github.com/leuski/cocoAspell
But then, I can't make it work. I'm not sure if it comes with the
installation already pre-set. here is what I did:
(1) downloaded the full set of the files
cocoAspell-master
cocoAspell-master $ ls
LICENSE
README.md
aspell
cocoAspell-2.x
(2) cd /Library/Application Support/
sudo mkdir cocoAspell
cd cocoAspell
sudo mv ~/Downloads/cocoAspell-master .
$ cd cocoAspell-master
cd cocoAspell-2.x
(3)
make install
make: Nothing to be done for `install'.
Is it a pre-installed directory?
(4) I downloaded aspell6-en-2020.12.07-0
from:
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/0index.html
and installed it by the instructions in:
aspell6-en-2020.12.07-0/README
/Library/Application Support/cocoAspell $ ls
aspell6-en-2020.12.07-0
cocoAspell-master
I do not know what are the files .rws
They seem byproducts without further role, and I cleaned them by:
make clean
(5) System Preferences doesn't show
cocoAspell preference pane
So, I haven't actually done the installion?
I'll continue during the day, hoping for help with
- the cocoAspell installation
- the cocoAspell preference pane
- Where should I move the directory:
Sierra & cocoAspell
to install / activate the macro?
Best Regards,
Roussanka
