Aspell 0.60 and mutt
Hello Users
In an effort to clean up my mail spelling/typos I am trying to get
aspell working with mutt, without much luck, it seems
I googled for how it 'should' be set up but none of the methods works
here. ie:
set ispell='aspell \
--language-tag=`echo $LANG|sed "s/\.[^.]*$//"` \
--encoding=`echo $LANG|sed "s/^[^.]*\.\?//"` \
--mode=email \
--add-email-quote=%,#,:,} \
--check'
or
macro compose i '<enter-command>set ispell="aspell --language-tag=en -c --mode=email" <enter><ispell>' 'Run aspell with English dictionary'
or even the simple
set ispell="aspell -e -c"
Each, tried seperately in .muttrc. does not bring up the text in
the compose menu. Hitting 'i' does cause the screen to junp, or if
I change the "--encoding=`echo $LANG|sed "s/^[^.]*\.\?//"`" to
--encoding=en_US, I get an error message flashing so fast you can't read it.
Is anyone able to get this version of aspell (0.60.2+20050121-1)
working with mutt (1.5.6-20040907+3) or should I just give up and
go with ispell?
