I have noted that when for a buffer flyspell-mode is enable, then this
is saved in .emacs.desktop so the next time one starts Emacs the buffer
is reloaded with that mode enabled.
But if one also change the default dictionary
(M-x ispell-change-dictionary), the new dictionary is not saved for that
buffer in .emacs.desktop!
Shouldn't it be saved?
My opinion is that when flyspell-mode is enabled also the current
dictionary should be saved in the desktop file. But this is only my
opinion and sorry for the noise.
Cheers,
Angelo.

The list of local variables saved and restored by desktop is
customizable through `desktop-locals-to-save'. You probably want to
add `ispell-local-dictionary' or something similar to this list. It
can't contain everything by default.

I would that if buffer-A is spelled with italian dict., buffer-B with
english dict., buffer-C..., then the same should happen when these
buffers are reloaded (if flyspell is saved).
So which variables should I add to desktop-locals-to-save (a little
example?)?
In any case, I remains in my opinion: If the logic is to save, by
default, the flyspell-mode for a buffer, also the dictionary with which
the buffer is spelled should be saved. If not then also flyspell should
not, by default!
Cheers,
Angelo.

Could ispell.el add ispell-local-dictionary to desktop-locals-to-save?

It could, but I don't see what makes this different to any other local
variable, nor why one wouldn't be better off with this in a file local
variables section.

I have add to my .emacs:
(setq desktop-locals-to-save
(cons 'ispell-local-dictionary desktop-locals-to-save))
Right?
But the problem I posed is on Principle!
If for a buffer the flyspell-mode is saved in the .emacs.desktop file
then the logic asks that also the dictionary with which the buffer is
spelled SHOULD be saved!
Why NOT?
Why these two things should be separate?
Cheers,
Angelo.

Agreed. We could add flyspell/ispell to `desktop-minor-mode-table' and
`desktop-minor-mode-handlers' with appropriate functions to save and
restore values like `ispell-local-dictionary'. But I don't understand
neither Gerd's comments nor his implementation of this yet.
BTW does anyone know why some minor modes like `overwrite-mode' are in
`desktop-locals-to-save' and others like `transient-mark-mode' and
`visible-mode' are not?

Because desktop has no explicit code for flyspell, it simply saves and
restores all the active minor modes.

Someone made the point that if and when desktop records that flyspell
mode is on, it would be quite useful to also record which dictionary
it uses. I agree -- that would be more convenient for users.
If that requires some special code in desktop.el for the sake of
flyspell, I think it's worth it.
