I have problems with the spellcker of Alpha 9.2.2 in TeX Mode for french. Specifically in a text in french, the job is not done correctly in presence of accents or in comments.

Here are the parameters concerning spelling in my Alpha's configuration for the TeX Mode
Choose an implementatation for spellcheck: Alpha

Alpha Preferences: "TeX" Mode > LaTeX Accents
Accent Smart Escape: Yes
Accents in Comments: No
Bind LaTeX Accents: No
Accente Syntax: \'{e} & \oe{}

Alpha Preferences: "TeX" Mode Features
LaTeX Accents: Yes

My test file is:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]
% letter
\begin{document}
Nous \'{e}tudions ici le bouclage dynamique de sortie qui est un sujet extr\^{e}mement extremement vaste. Nous nous li-mi-tons `{a} l'\'{e}nonc\'{e} d'id\'{e}es directrices et `{a} une pr\'{e}sentation tr`{e}s in\'{e}gale des r\'{e}sultats, avec beaucoup de d\'{e}tails pour certains et `{a} peine une \'{e}bauche pour d'autres.
\end{document}

Here are the flagged words by Alpha after the action of "spellcheck window"
letter
extr
extremement
d'id
tr

For me letter should not be flagged because it is in a comment. The other flagged words show that TeX accents, as declared in the configuration, are not understood. Worse, if I use the spellchecker to correct the word extremement I get extr\^{e}mement which is correct. But if I run the spellchecker on the corrected file, the corrected word is flagged as
extr

I have noticed that the problem does not depend in the encoding. It is the same for UTF-8, OSX and ISO.

Is there a problem with my configuration or is it a problem with the spellchecker ?

Auxiliary question: how to remove "learned" words or to go back to the default dictionary ?
