Thanks for this information Kalyan.
After the spell check is finished does this alternative buffer stay on the screen or disappear?


Also if you use the alternative buffer can you press enter under one of the words in their to change the spelling in the main buffer?

Thanks,
Nigel

Hello Nigel,
The buffer splits anyway. If the limit is exceeded then Emacspeak simply
says "x alternatives are available" where x is some integer greater than
the limit you have set. In my LaTeX files I have things like "$m_{ijk}$
and, of course, ispell becomes highly creative in trying to find3 letter
words starting with`i' and gives 40 or so weird possibilitiies.
Actually I am trying to write down a variable `m' with 3 indices `i',
`j', `k' which index the variable.  So when I hear there are x
alternatives, I suspend spell-checking by doing C-g and then ask
Emacspeak to spell out the word.

I hope this explains what I do --- not that it is going to be of much
use to very many people.

Cheers.
Kalyan
