Indeed, I forgot, I have since long disabled the popup debugger so for me that error was logged in the background. It is a good way to deal with errors by the way... But of course it works, because the principle is clear. Perhaps this is not so stupid after all. Because if (when) it works it is a small thing to set up an interface to just boost such exceptions. I don't know how many there are, but in some strange contexts where the whitelisted combinations contain words that are very similar to ordinary words - why not? Try this: (setq ispell-skip-region-alist (append ispell-skip-region-alist '(("Hello Kitteh" . "[:word:]") ))) Hello Kitteh. Hello James.Noq I'm misspelling both "now" and kitten: kitteh. Will it ignore Hello Kitteh, but still get the two misspellings? -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
