I'm running GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600) of 2002-03-19 on buffy, on Windows XP Pro, and I'm using Cygwin. When I attempt to run ispell, I get in my *messages* buffer: check-ispell-version: /usr/local/bin/ispell version 3 release 3.1.12 or greater is required The program name is set as follows: ,----[ C-h v ispell-program-name RET ] | ispell-program-name's value is | "/usr/local/bin/ispell" | | Documentation: | Program invoked by M-$ and M-x ispell-region commands. | | You can customize this variable. `---- >>From within NTEmacs: ,----[ which ispell ] | /usr/bin/ispell `---- >>From a bash shell (ignore the screwed up cygwin prompt): ,---- | Aü"@jrancier / | $ which ispell | /usr/local/bin/ispell | | Aü"@jrancier / | $ ispell | GNU Ispell, version 4.0. | Copyright (C) 1990, 1993 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | Ispell comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details run "ispell -W" | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it | under certain conditions; run "ispell -C" for details. | word: `---- I'll assume that NTEmacs is trying to using /usr/bin/ispell, even though I explicitly named /usr/local/bin/ispell.
