C-h v ispell-program-name. Mine says:
,----
| ispell-program-name is a variable defined in ‘ispell.el’.
| Its value is "/usr/bin/aspell"
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| Documentation:
| Program invoked by M-$ and M-x ispell-region commands.
`----
And if I check `ispell.el' I see the choices:
,----
| (defcustom ispell-program-name
| (or (executable-find "aspell")
| (executable-find "ispell")
| (executable-find "hunspell")
| "ispell")
`----
So if you have installed aspell and emacs can find it, it will use it automatically.
