This variable is nil in the older working version of cvs-emacs This variable does not exist in the newer broken version of cvs-emacs > If you start emacs with > the --no-init-file and --no-site-file command line options, does the > problem still occur? Yes, the problem is identical if I use those options. I have read the email messages you pointed to and found a workaround: If I run the command ispell-change-dictionary and select one of the options (e.g. american) then spell checking starts working. This command creates ispell-dictionary and sets it to nil and it creates the previous missing ispell-local-dictionary and sets it to american. This can be made permanent: Adding (setq ispell-dictionary "american") to my ~/.emacs causes ispell-dictionary to be set properly and it leaves ispell-local-dictionary uncreated. After performing ispell-buffer, I notice ispell-local-dictionary has been created and set to nil. Conclusion: It seems there is a problem in the latest cvs version where ispell-dictionary is not being created by default (and set to nil) and this prevents ispell from working for me. --0-1902908235-1138222316=:96861 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel --0-1902908235-1138222316=:96861--
