I've got libsexy, enchant, and xchat installed, and recently noticed that I don't have spellchecker working, or not working anymore for some reason.

Are there any ways to enable it, as i've not seen any tabs/options for it in the GUI

EDIT: Had to correct xchat-gnome to xchat, I thought I was using the gnome one, but I did not

Sorry, my mistake, it's not xchat-gnome, is regular xchat

doing the above emerge command on the plain xchat
Code:
gamer ~ # emerge -pv net-irc/xchat     

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] net-irc/xchat-2.8.6-r2  USE="dbus libnotify mmx* nls perl python spell ssl -debug -ipv6 -tcl -xchatdccserver -xchatnogtk -xft"

If you go to Preferences => Input box do you see a check box for Spell checking ?

There's no spell checking box there, as of xchat-2.8.8.
I have this spell issue as well, though I installed xchat with "spell" flag, and enchant with "aspell" flag
Code:
 net-irc/xchat-2.8.8 (dbus libnotify nls perl python spell ssl tcl -debug -ipv6 -mmx -ntlm -xchatdccserver -xchatnogtk -xft)
app-text/enchant-1.6.0 (aspell hunspell -zemberek)   


maybe it's something to do with gtkspell, the default spell-check at configure time. a warning message states that gtkspell is not recommended :
Code:
mmx tinting ......... : no   spelling .............. : gtkspell
XShm tinting ........ : yes   plugin interface ...... : yes
text backend ........ : pango   nls/gettext ........... : yes
openssl support ..... : yes   ipv6 support .......... : no
dbus support ........ : yes   msproxy ntlm (ISA) .... : no

The binary will be installed in /usr/bin

Warning: GTK SPELL is not the recommended spelling library.
