Customize "Ispell Program Path" with full path: /opt/local/bin/aspell 2. In the Terminal.app do: $ sudo chmod 777 /etc/paths.d $ sudo echo "/opt/local/bin" > /etc/paths.d/macport $ sudo chown root:wheel /etc/paths.d/macport $ sudo chmod 644 /etc/paths.d/macport $ sudo chmod 755 /etc/paths.d Relogin to let the profile process read the file and add the path to the $PATH env. To uninstall just: $ sudo rm /etc/paths.d/macport There is a third solution, but this will mess up the macport installation of emacs.
