First find your: <your home dir>/mc/mcedit/ Perhaps: ls -l ~/mc/mcedit/ or try: locate mcedit | grep macro
In previous versions *macro* was in the same directory, but had nothing to do with ispell. Here's the old: File: edit.spell.rc... #! /bin/sh # *** External Spell Checker for GNU Midnight Commander. # arguments: # $1 - Name of the file being edited # $2 - Name of the file to be processed if aspell </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1; then aspell -c "$2" else ispell "$2" fi ---------- and i see no reason why macros should be involved. I'm wondering if the new version still has <bad effects from arrow-keys> after the spell-check; even after exiting <F4> and re-entering?
