Hello!

The question = I'd like to ask, seems to be somewhere between the topics covered by "emacs= -devel@gnu.org" and "help-gnu-evams@gnu.org"

I have already posted i= t on "help-gnu-evams@gnu.org"  but did not get a working answer. = Sorry for cross-posting, but some of you might not be watching "help-gnu-e= vams@gnu.org".

Here is the question:

I want to look up a stri= ng in one of the dictionaries accessible from emacs.  The string is no= t contained in a buffer (in which case I would use `ispell-word=B4) but is = only referred to by a variable in my elisp code.  There used to be a f= unction 'spell-string' but the spell-packages is obsoleted and the build in= help system refers me to 'ispell'.  But I cannot find an equivalent f= unction in the 'ispell' package.  Does any one know of a solution?

I am using Emacs version 23.2.1.

Thank you in adva= nce, Stefan
