- Well, the problem is that Elm is asking what command line options
- to use with ispell, what Elm does is take the path name and
- the options and pass them on the command line. So Elm did a
-
- /usr/local/bin/ispell V N X H Y G J D T Z S P M /tmp/snd.XXXXX
-
- and you can see the result.
-
- did you mean:
- /usr/local/bin/ispell -V -N -X -H -Y -G -J -D -T -Z -S -P -M /tmp/snd.XXXXX
-
- (which I doubt)
-
- all I use here is -x for the ispell options.
