[Aspell-user] About aspell 0.60.4 of win32 run aspell -a

[Huifeng Shen]

When I compile the aspell without pdcurses-2.6 and run aspell -a, the screen
print such  errors:
WARNING: Unable to enter Nroff mode: Unknown mode: "nroff".
Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_US".

But when I build with aspell with pdcurses-2.6, aspell print the message:
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.60.4)
It seems OK.
But the manual tell it can not work in emacs(it's terrible). I try it in
msys, it print the messgae "Invalid keyboard code specified".
I have meet a great problem of aspell of 0.60.4 not integrate with auctex(I
am not sure it can not work with auctex or latex-mode, but I find it can
work in text mode. When I use aspell instead of ispell in text mode, it
works properly even if it is compiled with pdcurses)
I hope to know how to report aspell 0.60.4 of win32 can not work in emacs
latex-mode(perhaps auctex).

PS : the problem of compile aspell 0.60.4:
I must do two addtional things(Do you need this to compile aspell).
1. I modify common/file_util.cpp and add #include "asc_ctype.hpp" blow the
line 15 #include "string_list.hpp".
2. I modify the generate Makefile and
add -I$(top_builddir)/modules/speller/default -I$(top_builddir)/interfaces/c
c to DEFAULT_INCLUDES

My enviroment is very common :
gcc-3.4.2
g++-3.4.2
MSYS-1.0.11-2004.04.30-1
binutils-2.16.91-20050827-1
mingw-runtime-3.9
w32api-3.5
pdcurses-2.6

PS : I also try to email to the maintainer of aspell, but all failed.
