The dictionary word list has been significantly increased by merging in a large number of new words from the British word lists in SCOW- Spell Checking Oriented Word Lists, Revision 6 December 5, 2008 by Kevin Atkinson
"The SCOWL is a collection of word lists split up in various sizes, and other categories, intended to be suitable for use in spell checkers. However, I am sure it will have numerous other uses as well."
The latest version of SCOW can be found at http://wordlist.sourceforge.net/
I have also modified the dictionaries.xcu file to give unique files names to the en_GB hyphenation
dictionary and the US thesaurus in this extension to prevent unwanted interaction with other English dictionaries. Thanks to Robert Black for his assistance with this.
