Hi, Lionel, happy to read you I have been looking at popcons and seems that regarding ispell dicts ifrench-gut is way more popular than ifrench, but on the hunspell side the winner is hunspell-fr (which pulls hunspell-fr-classical) ifrench 168 myspell-fr 775 ifrench-gut 21419 myspell-fr-gut 375 hunspell-fr 11618 hunspell-fr-classical 11565 I do not know about the merits of the different ispell dicts, but keeping ifrench-gut ispell dict seems reasonable. On the other hand, unless it provides something better, dropping myspell-fr-gut as a real dict seems also reasonable, but this really requires more feedback from french users. Regards, -- Agustin
