Hello,
In order to make my .emacs more robust to different PC installations, I would
like to test for the presence of the French dictionary before loading it.
Something like the following:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq ispell-dictionary-alist
;; those not here will result in "undefined dictionary"
'(
;; default
(nil
"[A-Za-z]" "[^A-Za-z]"
"[']" nil ("-B") nil iso-8859-1)
;; Yankee English
("en_US"
"[A-Za-z]" "[^A-Za-z]"
"[']" nil ("-B") nil utf-8)))
;; standard French
(when (file-exists-p "/usr/lib/aspell/fr_FR")
; file can be opened for reading
(add-to-list 'ispell-dictionary-alist
'("fr_FR"
"[a-zàâäéèêëîïôöùûüçA-ZÀÂÄÉÈÊËÎÏÔÖÙÛÜÇ]" "[^a-zàâäéèêëîïôöùûüçA-ZÀÂÄÉÈÊËÎÏÔÖÙÛÜÇ]"
"[-']" t nil "~list" utf-8)
'append))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
My questions are:
- which file do I have to test for its existence? There are so many different
files for every language (not to mention differences between ispell, aspell
and hunspell dictionaries).
Just an extract of /usr/lib/aspell/:
