Then how about keeping the ispell-region and ispell-buffer functions, but leaving them unbound by default? Who is talking about getting rid of them? Then those of us who prefer the old UI could bind ispell-region to M-$. What would prevent you from doing that? and Han Boetes wrote: Would this also apply to commands as downcase-word and upcase-word for instance? As I see it C-u M-u and friends would continue to operate on the next four words, because C-u stands for a numeric argument of four. What we are talking about is the following. (Unless I am totally misunderstanding things.) Currently C-u M-$ resumes an ispell session is there is a session to resume. Otherwise, it currently throws an error. The proposal is to make C-u M-$ call `ispell' if there is no ispell session to resume (instead of throwing an error). Nothing would change in any situation where currently no error is thrown.
