Well, I've had to sort this out on my own. It turns out that it's relatively easy to get spell checking working under Emacs with aspell. That's what the two Linux distros I have, OpenSUSE and Fedora, use for Emacs. Since they both come with Hunspell, I guess the packagers of those distros couldn't get Hunspell working under Emacs any better than I could. (It does compile under OpenSolaris without any problems, and works from the command line. The problem is that it doesn't work with the Emacs ispell mode.)
GNU aspell didn't compile for me with ncurses, so I used "./configure --disable-curses". You don't need ncurses to be enabled in aspell anyway, if you're only going to use it in Emacs. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
