Sorry, what does ``Emacs ist größer Nr. 20´´ mean? I don't understand german language. Both ispell and ispell with german dict run on my ibook. To use german dict, I temporally took out my .emacs.el, chose "Options > Mule > Set Language Environment > European > German", choose "Tools > Spell Checking > Select Dict > Select German Dict". -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I wonder your keyboard has an "ö" key?
