The only problem is, that it needs some more polish. I would like to
see it to be extended by a similar mechanism for aspell dictionaries.

That's what I wanted to say with my previous mail.
BTW: I don't know the Danish language, but did you find a way to
create a _small_ aspell dictionary? In contrast to ispell AFAIK
aspell doesn't support suffixes, which means, that a German aspell
dictionary is awfully large (the same dictionary base needs 10MB for
aspell and only 2,3MB for ispell). Sometimes I think about creating
the aspell dictionary from the ispell dictionary on the fly while
unpacking...
Tschoeeee
