Re: [orca-list] Spell word problem solved

Garrett:

Glad you got this working!

Also...before you delete your ~/.orca directory, you can try posting 
your ~/.orca/user-settings.py and ~/.orca/orca-customizations.py files 
in a message to this list along with a description of the problem 
you're running into.  This can help us figure out if we accidentally 
changed something that caused existing ~/.orca files from working.
