Hi Kevin,
thanks for the tips!

I am not sure, if I understood that correctly. Customizing
the find-file-hook I get a list of functions which are
called when a buffer gets loaded; e.g. vc-find-file-hook
gets loaded. So something like could work when I open
'test.tex':
(add-hook 'vc-find-file-hook
(lambda ()
(cond
((string-match "test.tex" )
(setq ispell-local-dictionary "deutsch8")))))
Somehow it doesn't work!?
Now,I just tried to use:
(if (eq buffer-file-name "article.tex" )
(setq ispell-local-dictionary "deutsch8"))
which doesn't work either!?
Greetings!
Fabian
