ispell and aspell use different dictionaries. Changing the default ispell program name from "ispell" to "aspell" is an incompatible change for users configured Emacs to use ispell dictionaries, not aspell dictionaries. `ispell-program-name' can be changed automatically to "aspell" only when `ispell-check-version' detects aspell's implemention of ispell, i.e. a program for which `ispell -v' returns: @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.50.5) -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
