Users may have different sets of dictionaries installed for Ispell and Aspell. After replacing the default program name "ispell" by "aspell", ispell.el may fail when a configured Ispell's dictionary name doesn't match any of installed Aspell dictionary names. To avoid such failure, ispell.el could check the Aspell's exit code and in case when Aspell can't find a dictionary name among its list of available dictionaries, ispell.el could change the default program name from "aspell" to "ispell" and try to run Ispell with the same dictionary name. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
