Ultimately it's the LANG environment variable, or in the case of Windows the lack of it. I found that with LANG set to "en_GB" I didn't need any other configuration to get hunspell working. I didn't even need to tell emacs to use hunspell. Irritatingly OS X sets LANG to "en_GB.UTF-8", which seems to break ispell too. Setting it as just plain "en_GB" fixes it there too. It appears the new version of ispell in 24.4+ is very heavily dependent on LANG to the extent that explicitly setting ispell-dictionary won't over-ride it. -- Alan Third
