As I already told you, you need to find a Unix or GNU/Linux workstation (any such workstation will do), and find on it a file named `words'. The possible places for it are listed in ispell.el where it initializes the value of ispell-alternate-dictionary. I really cannot tell anything else, since I don't know where to find this file except on a Unix box. That is how I got my copy. > 1) first of all: is there no common specified way (f.g. anywhere in the > emacs manual or emacs faq or wiki or ...) for windows users configuring emacs > for spell-checking and word completion. i didn't find it. I think spell-checking should work for you. Word completion is a different features (and a minor one at that, IMO), and it needs the `words' file to work.
