Hi, I am using GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (i386-apple-darwin9.7.0, NS
apple-appkit-949.46) on OS X 10.5.8.
When I launch emacs from the terminal with
$ /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs &
I can use ispell as expected.
However, if I launch emacs by clicking on its icon - which presumably points
to the same binary file -
I get the following error:
apply: Searching for program: No such file or directory, ispell
Ispell is on my load path
("/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/textmodes/"); even when I
do one of the following I get the same error:
(load "/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/textmodes/ispell")
(add-to-list 'load-path
"/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/textmodes")
The fact that it works if I launch the same application with the same .emacs
file from the terminal (no -Q option necessary) leads me to believe that the
conflict is not in any of my settings.
Thanks much!
-Stephen

The problem is that Emacs can't find the `ispell' binary, probably
because of different PATH settings. Try customising
ispell-program-name, setting it to the full path of ispell.

See the section "Grabbing environment variables" in the Mac OS /
GNUstep chapter of the Emacs manual. PATH is the issue here.

This results from PATH being different when starting from icon. You
can fix it by one of several means. Please refer to the manual or
search on the net about Emacs Mac OS X, and path.
Emacs does none of this by default to avoid unexpected differences
from other OS X applications, which follow the same rules. If you do
not like this behavior, the Aquamacs distribution does set PATH I
believe.

Same problem here (but when calling flyspell-mode). I updated /etc/
paths as explained in the Emacs manual, it does not help.
Interestingly enough, M-! ispell works, but M-x ispell or M-x flyspell-
mode do not work.
