my dictionaries are here:
Code:Nokia-N900:/home/user/.osso/dictionaries#
g-man: to confirm autocomplete was activated before entering any command.
My system seems to be different to other users, any thoughts?
I'd be especially interested to hear form other UK users who could replicate this issue.

Hopefully this works, I'm just guessing on the deleting the ^X part..Code:cd .osso/dictionaries vi .personal.dictionary use arrow keys to go to your password, press x (works like delete key) untill you delete the password and ^X (where x is random character) now to save type :x
Just wanted to say thanks - I followed this and it worked! :-) I had some incorrectly typed words I needed to remove.
I used both "vi .used.dictionary" and "vi .personal.dictionary" to search.
Dunno if this may help some people... I wasn't so familiar with vi commands...
I used "/<search string> <return>" to find the incorrectly typed words, "n" to find further occurrences, and then "h" or "l" to move left or right. And then as mentioned previously, "x" to delete each character, including the "^B" (or some other upper case letter). (The "^B" is one character!)
And then I used ":wq" to save the changes and exit vi, or ":q!" to exit without saving. (I was worried about messing the files up.)
I then also needed to turn off and then on again Text Input | Word completion in Settings.
Weird thing is, I have a word "i''v" which I tried a number of times to remove, but couldn't. But this did work for the other words I wanted to remove.
