Subject: ispell gives "Wrong type argument: stringp, nil"
Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 23:42:30 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <jamdnS10xtBQnNPeRVn-qg@scnresearch.com> (raw)
I'm setting up a new installation of emacs+auctex+ispell+balh, blah,blah.
FLyspell mode turns on and when I attempt and when I attempt to either
spell check the document or simply check a word I get the following error in
the minibuffer:
Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
I've added the following lines to my .emacs file:
; set some reftex modes
(setq reftex-extra-bindings t)
(setq reftex-plug-info-AUCTeX t)
(setq bib-cite-use-reftex-view-crossref t)
(setq reftex-cite-format 'natbib)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex) ; with AUCTeX LaTeX mode
(add-hook 'latex-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex) ; with Emacs latex mode
;; to make auctex aware of style files and multi-file docs
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
(require 'tex-site)
;;; try the flyspell stuff..
(add-hook 'tex-mode-hook (function (lambda () (setq ispell-parser 'tex))))
(setq ispell-dictionary "C:/ispell/dic/american.hash")
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook (lambda () (flyspell-mode 1)))
So I'm not sure what's going wrong. I've got an old installation on another
machine (not sure the versions on the old machine) and it works just fine.
I'm running emacs 21.3.1 with the ispell-3.2.06 downloaded from
http://www.fsci.fuk.kindai.ac.jp/aftp/pub/ptex/utils/
Any help?
Jeff.
