I think these are the correct names of the aspell dictionaries. = "German8" is clearly an ispell name. When you have ispell/aspell/flyspell/whatever magic spell correctly = configured, you should be able to manually invoke M-x ispell-change-dictionary RET (I *only* use ispell; this works) or whatever command is available for = flyspell and then press TAB to see in a *Completions* buffer the = dictionaries to choose one from. If this fails, then you have to set up = a bit more, for example the path to the directory with the dictionaries. To share one user init file between different systems you can use the = variable system-type to distinguish between the systems. -- Mit friedvollen Gr=FC=DFen Pete They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary = safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania
