Greetings,<br>I&#39;ve found that (flyspell-buffer) doesn&#39;t go through the same dictionary initialization steps as (ispell-buffer).&nbsp; Specifically, the flyspell functions (flyspell-word) and (flyspell-large-region) don&#39;t call (ispell-maybe-find-aspell-dictionaries), they way (ispell-region) and (flyspell-mode) do.&nbsp; The result: user&#39;s aspell setup (if present) doesn&#39;t get to inform `ispell-dictionary-alist&#39;, unless e.g. (ispell-buffer) or (flyspell-mode) is called first.<br>
<br>I believe simply adding (ispell-maybe-find-aspell-dictionaries) near the top of `flyspell-word&#39; and `flyspell-large-region&#39; definitions, as it already is for `flyspell-mode-on&#39;, will take care of this.<br>
<br>Cheers,<br>Nathaniel<br>
