I have installed emacs for winXP, but how do I enable some kind og spell
checking?
Johs
1. Install aspell for w32. http://aspell.net/win32/
2. add aspell.exe's directory to your PATH variable.
3. add (setq ispell-program-name "aspell") to your .emacs
Done
You might also want to set the dictionary to use by adding
(setq ispell-dictionary 'british)
to your .emacs
flyspell-mode and flyspell-prog-mode are handy
if you want background spell checking,
otherwise use M-x ispell-buffer, M-x ispell-region, M-x ispell-word
to check the speling
