Local Variables -- ispell

Local Variables -- ispell

[Alberto Manuel Brandão Simões]

Hi

I am trying to enable flyspell-mode and change ispell dictionary for 
Portuguese using Local Variables: syntax.

At the moment, I just can do that with eval, which is not nice.

Is not there an easy way to enable flyspell and change its dictionary?

Thanks
Alberto

Is this what you're doing?

;; -*- eval: (ispell-change-dictionary "portugues"); -*-

How about:

;; -*- ispell-local-dictionary: "portugues"; -*-

Well, I was using eval: (flyspell-mode)
Couldn't find this one :)

Nicer.
But, how to enable flyspell?
I tried 'flyspell-mode: t' but didn't work. I can't change the main mode 
as well (as I'm using AucTeX)...

THanks for any idea ;)
Cheers
Alberto

At the end of the file :
%%% Local Variables: ***
%%% mode:flyspell ***
%%% End: ***

or at the beginning :
%%% -*- mode: flyspell; -*-

Why not

  (add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook (lambda () (flyspell-mode 1)))

File local variables should describe properties of the file.  E.g. that the
file is a LaTeX file or that the text is written in portugese.  But not that
you like to edit it using flyspell: someone else might prefer to edit this
file without flyspell.
