Where do I find the file containing the spell check words?

[djb]

I just got a new computer and am trying to transfer my files, settings, etc.
I had added a lot of new words to my spell checker and need to transfer them
over. Where do I find this file?

djb,

Thank you. Now I previously loaded a medical dictionary onto my computer.
Would those words be there in one of those dictionaries listed also?

djb,

That I don't know. Just thinking out loud here. If your medical
dicitionary created a .dic file, you should be able to transfer it like any
other. Do you still have the file that loaded your medical dictionary?
Maybe you could just load it again on your new computer.

BTW, does your old computer have more than 15G of harddrive/356M memory? If
so, I could use a new computer myself
