set userdictpath
set userdictpath=d1 [:dn]
This command searches a list of directories, separated by semicolons, for user-defined dictionaries that are used by the Spell Checker. Specify the directories containing the dictionaries; don't specify individual dictionary names. The default search path is Arbortext-path\lib\proximity\userdict. You can specify the %D or %Hsymbolic parameters in the path list in the path, %D specifies the default search path.
If there is an Arbortext-path\custom\dictionaries subdirectory at startup, the custom\dictionaries path is automatically prepended to the dictionary path. Putting your custom dictionaries in the custom\dictionaries subdirectory makes them automatically available, avoiding manual steps to add them to the path.
You can use the append_userdict_path function to update the tag template path. You can also specify the user dictionary path in Tools > Preferences > Spelling dialog box.
Example
set userdictpath=/users/pat:/company/dicts
set userdictpath="c:\Program Files\Arbortext\editor\dict;c:\Arbortext\mydict"
