Subject: ispell for Windows (ASPELL dict' problem)
Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2014 02:50:54 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f8544ff4-2738-4e2d-bde7-d73737b8dc00@googlegroups.com> (raw)
In order to get ispell to work with Windows/Emacs I am following this Aspell guide:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/AspellWindows
However, it all of a sudden talk about a:
(setq ispell-personal-dictionary "C:/path/to/your/.ispell")
What is this about?
I have downloaded the two binaries firstly installing the Aspell binary. Then, I have installed aspell-en-0.50-2-3.exe - the EN dict. This produces the following files:

I have tried:
(setq ispell-personal-dictionary "C:/Program Files (x86)/Aspell/dict/en_GB.multi")
etc but I get the error message:
ispell-init-process: Error: The file "C:/Program Files (x86)/Aspell/dict/en_GB.multi" is not in the proper format.
I also cannot find a file called .ispell: In my EMACS dir location:
find . -iname "*spell*"
./etc/images/low-color/spell.xpm
./etc/images/spell.pbm
./etc/images/spell.xpm
./lisp/erc/erc-spelling.el
./lisp/erc/erc-spelling.elc
./lisp/obsolete/spell.el
./lisp/obsolete/spell.elc
./lisp/textmodes/flyspell.el
./lisp/textmodes/flyspell.elc
./lisp/textmodes/ispell.el
./lisp/textmodes/ispell.elc
How to solve this problem?
Thank you.
