Hi,
Gruezi,
I'm working with Emacs 23.3 on Mac OS X 10.7.2. I would like to use aspell for
spell
> checking, but I get an error. Here is what I tried so far and the
corresponding results:
1) downloaded and installed aspell-0.60.6.1.tar.gz
2) copied ./scripts/ispell and ./scripts/spell to /usr/local/bin [recommended
in README]
3) downloaded and installed aspell6-en-7.1-0.tar.bz2 [English dictionary]
4) tested aspell in the terminal => works
Ok until now...
5) downloaded
http://www-sop.inria.fr/members/Manuel.Serrano/flyspell/flyspell.html
6) put it in ~/.emacs.d/flyspell under the name "flyspell.el"
7) put in ~/.emacs:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/flyspell")
(autoload 'flyspell-mode "flyspell" "On-the-fly spelling checker." t)
(autoload 'flyspell-delay-command "flyspell" "Delay on command." t)
(autoload 'tex-mode-flyspell-verify "flyspell" "" t)
... in principle not necessary, as e23.3 comes with flyspell prepackaged ...
(setq-default ispell-program-name "aspell")
... the trick comes here:
(setq-default ispell-program-name "/usr/local/bin/aspell")
(setq-default ispell-list-command "list")
Ciao,
Mario
If I open a .tex file and use M-x flyspell-mode, I obtain: "Searching for
program: No such
> file or directory, aspell".
Without the last line in 7), I obtain "Searching for program: No such file or
directory, ispell".

The buffer *Messages* says:
...
Applying style hooks... done
Loading /Users/mhofert/.emacs.d/flyspell/flyspell.el (source)...done
Local Ispell dictionary set to nil
Starting new Ispell process [default] ...
