As Eli told me I should use latin-1 which I did, but then ispell complained about using latin-1. So I thought I should give aspell a try I set ispell-program-name to "/usr/bin/aspell" And installed the aspell dictionaries for English, German, French and Spanish. However when I wanted to switch to the German dictionary, via ispell-change-dictionary no German dictionary was offered (but 65 different versions of English) The ispell dictionaries are in /usr/lib/ispell the aspell dictionaries seem to be in /usr/lib/aspell Any ideas what is wrong? Regards Uwe Brauer -- I strongly condemn Hamas heinous despicable pogroms/atrocities on Israel I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine. I support to deliver weapons to Ukraine's military. I support the EU and NATO membership of Ukraine.
