-For the dictionaryFilenames option in SlyEdit.cfg, you can specify a comma-separated list of dictionary filenames.  The dictionary filenames are in the format dictionary_<languageName>.txt, where <language> is the language name.  In this list, the filenames can be in that format, or just <languageName>.txt, or just <languageName>.  You can leave the setting blank to use all dictionary files that exist on the system.+For the dictionaryFilenames option in SlyEdit.cfg, you can specify a comma-separated list of dictionary filenames.  The dictionary filenames are in the format dictionary_<languageName>.txt, where <language> is the language name.  In this list, the filenames can be in that format, or just <languageName>.txt, or just <languageName>.  You can leave the setting blank to use all dictionary files that exist on the system.  Language names are meant to be in ISO standard language and localization tags - For example, en-US specifies English with spellings for the US.  Also, for dictionaries with localized spellings, the filenames can have a "-supplemental" at the end of their name before the extension if they only contain words that are unique to a particular region that don't exist for all regions.  Also, dictionary filenames can just contain the language without a localization if they contain words common to all regions. 
 +For example: 
 +^ Filename                          ^ Description ^ 
 +| dictionary_en.txt                 | General English dictionary with spellings common to all regions | 
 +| dictionary_en-US-supplemental.txt | English word spellings only specific to the US |
