Message-ID: <9810_1357835377_ZZi1c6V0Guq3D.00_50EEEC71.2080309@wiwi.uni-bielefeld.de> (raw)

Hello everone,

this is my first eMail to the list.
I have trouble getting spellchecking to work with Emacs 24.2.1 and Hunspell 1.3.2 on Windows XP.

I have read the help about spelling in the built in manual and searched the internet where I 
found advice to include these lines to my ~/.emacs.d/init.el file.

(setq ispell-dictionary-alist
    '((nil ; default
       "[a-zäöüßA-ZÄÖÜ]" "[^a-zäöüßA-ZÄÖÜ]" "[']" t
       ("-d" "C:\\Dokumente und Einstellungen\\ojones\\Eigene 
Dateien\\dictionaries\\de_DE_frami" "-i" "utf-8") nil utf-8)
      ("english"
       "[A-Za-z]" "[^A-Za-z]" "[']" nil
       ("-d" "en_GB") nil utf-8)
      ("german"
       "[a-zäöüßA-ZÄÖÜ]" "[^a-zäöüßA-ZÄÖÜ]" "[']" t
       ("-d" "'C:\\Dokumente und Einstellungen\\ojones\\Eigene 
Dateien\\dictionaries\\de_DE_frami'" "-i" "utf-8") nil utf-8)
      ("british"
       "[A-Za-z]" "[^A-Za-z]" "[']" nil
       ("-d" "en_GB") nil utf-8)))
(eval-after-load "ispell"
     (progn
       (setq ispell-dictionary "german"
	    ispell-extra-args '("-a" "-i" "utf-8") ; aspell doesn't understand -i utf-8, hunspell 
needs it
	    ispell-silently-savep t)))
(setq ispell-program-name "C:\\Dokumente und Einstellungen\\ojones\\Eigene 
Dateien\\hunspell-mingw-1.3.2-win32\\bin\\hunspell.exe")

where I made changes regarding the path to the affix and dictionary files and the hunspell.exe.

I verified that hunspell works, by executing it on the command line.

When I type M-x ispell in emacs I get the following error message

Can't open affix or dictionary flies for dictionary named "german".
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.2.06 (but really Hunspell 1.3.2)
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.2.06 (but really Hunspell 1.3.2)

Any help is highly appreciated.

Kind Regards
Oliver
