rms> Could you elaborate?  If you turn on flyspell mode for a read-only
rms> buffer, what subsequently happens that you find inconvenient?

Some might want to know of spelling problems they can't fix---but
never mind that---larger problem:

$ cat .emacs
(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode);adding this line makes the below useless!
(add-hook
 'text-mode-hook
 (lambda ()
   (or buffer-read-only (turn-on-auto-fill))
   (and (not buffer-read-only)(> 88888 (buffer-size))(flyspell-mode 1))))
$ emacs -nw --no-site-file /usr/share/emacs/21.3/etc/DOC-21.3.1
And what do you know, despite my best efforts, there I am staring at
"(Text Fly Fill)" in the modeline.
