Using aspell in emacs

[henri-biard]

It is a very weird way of using ispell.



Anyway, thank you.  



Have used the Emacs Manual, but it does not say much about aspell except for a 
link.



What is the exact command?



(setq ispell-program-name "aspell")



or


(setq ispell-program-name "/usr/bin/aspell")


Tried to do C-h v ispell-program-name



and the command did not give me anything.

Change the variable `ispell-program-name' as it is a variable defined
in ‘ispell.el’ and you are done.

Its value is "/usr/bin/aspell"

You can customize this variable.

Program invoked by M-$ and M-x ispell-region commands.

PLEASE NOTE: you are supposed to use Emacs Manual and at least search
through Emacs Manual by looking for keywords related to your
issues. Then you should say what searches you have performed and how
before asking, as it seem that you miss the solutions just because you
don't look into the manual.
