    Hi All,

    I would like to use AbiWord in Dutch, but it just won't speak to me
    natively. I must say I'm not too much into locale and such, so it's
    probably me :-(

    What i have:
    GTK+ 1.2.8
    AbiWord GTK_0.99.3

    I've downloaded the 3 AbiWord rpm's and they installed flawlessly (as it
    seems) on my SuSE 7.1 system (after getting expat 1.95.2) (I HAVE
    deinstalled the previous AbiWord first).
    I installed the dutch dictionary and that wordks fine, but everytime I
    startup AbiWord I have to change the language to dutch and I would like it
    to remember that it has to use dutch spelling. I could of course replace
    the american hash file with the dutch one, but is not the way, because I
    need US spelling as well.

    And for my wife to use AbiWord instead of StarOffice, it will have to have
    the menus in Dutch as well.

    I've tried
    export LANG=du_NL
    unset LC_ALL

    But that does not seem to do anything.

    Hope you people can help me out.

    Remco
