This is emacs 23.3.1 and aspell 0.60.6.1. To clarify, it is the Turkish "lowercase dotless i" that Aspell doesn't recognize as part of a word. This is when I run aspell on my text using an English dictionary (from aspell-en package). From within Emacs, or with Aspell alone. I do pass --encoding=UTF-8, but it doesn't seem necessary (it detects my locale, right). But when I try with a Turkish dictionary, it does work. Then the dotless-i is indeed part of the word. Probably because the tr.dat has "charset iso8859-9", while en.dat has "charset iso8859-1". I didn't look in the dat-files before. But this is a bit silly; I am using UTF-8! Is this artifacts of old non-utf8 Aspell; it still needs to tie a (narrow) character set to the dictionary it is spelling with? Could all this really be expected behaviour? (Moreover, I am not using any user dictionary.) _______________________________________________ Aspell-user mailing list Aspell-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-user
