I installed CocoAspell to help with spellchecking TeX documents (TeXShop). I liked the concept but I did not find it particularly helpful, and I preferred the native Apple spellcheck (despite underlining the TeX commands). So I tried to uninstall it, following the FAQs on the developer's page and right-clicking on the Spelling icon in System Preferences and removing that.
But after i uninstalled it, the English dictionary in Spelling did not work (in any program, such as TextEdit, Mail, etc.). The other languages worked fine (red underlines, and so on), but English did not. Eventually, after much troubleshooting, I simply deleted the AppleSpell.service file from the system/library/services folder and reinstalled the one from my other Mac. It now works fine. I just wanted to provide this feedback in case anyon else has similar problems.

The installation worked exactly as written in the "Read before you install..." file on my iMac (Core Duo).
Thanks for filling in this gap :-)

Previous versions have worked with mixed results, this one is definately a keeper.
The only complication I came across was because of a broken dictionary file for the Dutch language, which is not the responsibility of tyhe CocoAspell developer, of course. BTW other variants of the Dutch dictionary compile OK.
Just a suggestion: I guess a lot of people would appreciate an installer for dictionary files other than English, even though the manual installation is pretty straightforward.
