This is invisible to me. I tried it with the document language set to German, French and English and ispell reads my umlauted and otherwise non-ASCII words just fine (up to the point where it fails for the above mentioned bug) What is your document language set to? How is ispell called? (see the console messages) I get this with american and british, but curiously, not with finnish. The complete console output after starting the spellchecker is TeXmacs] Launching 'ispell -a -d american' TeXmacs] ispell error: Word '�' contains illegal characters As I'm currently using an american keyboard, I write my Å's by copypasting from the gnome character palette applet. For some obscure reason, this does not work directly, but I have to paste the character to a (gnome-) terminal first, and then select it from there, after which I can paste by middle-clicking. The result of this is that I get a single byte character with a hex-code of C5 to my .tm file. I'm not sure how TeXmacs handles unicode, but this looks a bit suspicious. The '�' I get in the console error message seems to have a code point of no less than 0xEFBFBD, if I copy this to a text file and look it with hexdump. Strange, Teemu

To this point this is a known upstream bug that is caused because the communication between TeXmacs and ispell are out of sync [1] and I can reproduce this, but: > If I start texmacs in the command line, this error message appears: > TeXmacs] ispell error: Word '�' contains illegal characters > > Other non-ascii characters like umlauts show this same behaviour.

Bug#384903: texmacs: ispell dies on 8-bit chars
Package: texmacs Version: 1:1.0.6-9 Severity: normal Writing an Angstrom sign (Å) to a text in TeXmacs and trying to spellcheck with ispell causes the Å to be detected as a spelling error. After pressing any of the Accept / Replace / Insert options, I get an "error: ispell does not respond". If I start texmacs in the command line, this error message appears: TeXmacs] ispell error: Word '�' contains illegal characters Other non-ascii characters like umlauts show this same behaviour.
