Did this but had to set it as C:\ispell\lib\english.has
(note the 'h' missing from the end)

This automatically setup flyspell-mode when I opened a .TXT file.
This is what it was supposed to do. However, when I typed a
word then press 'space' EMACS hung again and I was unable to
break it with C-g.

Could I be having a problem with my dictionary. When I created it with
'buildhas' I got a lot of numbers on the screen. It looked a bit
strange.
My 'english.has' file is ~4.7MB. Does that sound right?
