There's even a button for turn-on-flyspell, which in my Emacs activates flyspell mode for most modes. Choose to save your changes for future sessions. Of course, comment all other customizations you may have outside the 'customize' interface. You can later study whether the modes you want flyspell for call the text-mode-hook, and add them to the appropriate mode hook if they don't. Cheers, -- Seb
