Many thanks to Ashwin Ram for supporting ispell.el. However, a warning to all ispell users: ispell 2.0.01 contains a fairly serious bug when used from emacs, which causes your personal dictionary to be clobbered. The bug is fixed in patch 2, which (unlike ispell itself and patch 1) is available from the comp.sources.misc archives. -- Geoff Kuenning geoff@ITcorp.com {uunet,trwrb}!desint!geoff
