I installed cocoAspell on my new Mac on Intel today. After six hours trying to make it work, I've decided to give up. But before, I'll leave a post here in case somebody can help me.

The installation program seemed to work well, got the Spelling in System Preferences and chose the dictionary. I downloaded three dicitonaries and the only one that compiled without error messages was the English one. To compile them I cd into their directories and sudid

./configure
make install

Is there anything else I should have done?

I pointed my PATH variable to Library/PreferencePanes/Spelling.prefPane/Contents/Resources/cocoAspell.service/Contents/MacOS/cocoAspell that was the only binary I could find and if I type cocoaspell check myfile.txt on the bash shell, the program starts, registers the 3 dicitionaries and goes idle.

I must have done something wrong altogether.
