Hunspell works great on the command line but is still borked in emacs. Of course I get a similar problem in Arch, but with function unfound if I copy the examples out of the emacswiki my .emacs file will not even run due to errors, not to mention even if it is tweaked to my configuration. http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=107384 If you try to spell check a word by using "M-x ispell-word", you get the error message "ispell-get-word: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil". "M-x ispell-buffer" produces Spell checking test-buffer using hunspell with en-US dictionary... Spell-checking using hunspell with en-US dictionary done ispell-get-line: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil So if anyone has a valid .emacs hunspell under Arch let me know as of yet I have no idea as to why Hunspell won't work. That is why I use Aspell at the moment. Rthoreau
