You installed myspell-es, correct? Then tools >language settings and choose Spanish? Just in case you missed anything.
You can also make your own short cut layout for Accentuate.

There's no place like home
The case of our desktop says Dell, but since DH was a PC technician for many years, who knows what is actually inside of this box.

We have a couple of laptops, a couple of desktops, and parts of many scattered all over the house. We have a whole house wireless network. We have very high speed DSL that is connected to the first packet network ever built in the entire world. I know this because I was on the team that built out that network.

I think we run primarily windows, and use Mozilla for an internet browser. Other than that, I have no idea because I only use the thing. DH takes care of all the configurations on all of our machines.

Mine's a desktop running XP. I don't have a clue what kind it is, since my computer guru built it for me after my Gateway was struck by lightning. I'm still using the Gateway keyboard and speakers....everything else was replaced.

I have an iMac with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and I wouldn't trade it for a PC! Had them, too.

Let's see. Now that I am living alone, I have one. When all of us were living together, we had 3 Macs, 2 PCs and 4 persons.


Next I am going to get an iPad.

I have an Acer Aspire 5532 Laptop running Windows 7. It is new (just got it in January). I really like it except for the fact the battery needs to be recharged all the time. It last about 2 1/2 hrs. I also have a Emachine desktop that runs Windows XP. That one is all but dead though since it is full of viruses. I need to reformat that one.
