Hi, Vip!
Watch out that there are several path variables which you can define in
Emacs! E.g. the MS Windows PATH variable which applies to the cmd-shell
in Emacs. Regarding aspell or other tools that Emacs relies on, make
sure that they are included in the <exec-path> variable.
AFAIK, the MS Windows Environment Variable PATH should be included in
<exec-path> automatically but in my case (GNU Emacs 22.1 on MS Windows
XP) this failed. Therefore, I set all path variables separately in my
.emacs file, e.g. I include the aspell/ispell path explicitly in my
<exec-path>
(setq-default exec-path '(
;; GNU Utils
"C:/cygwin/bin/"
"C:/Program Files/Aspell/bin/"
;; MS Windows Integration
"."
"C:/WINDOWS/"
"C:/WINDOWS/system32/"
"C:/WINDOWS/System32/Wbem/"
"C:/Program Files/Support Tools/"
))
Hope this helps.
Will
