I have not found any option for that in the ispell man page, it only mentions html, troff o tex keywords or tags being recognized. As for aspell, there is no "man aspell", and substituting "ispell" by "aspell" in the pine config makes the spell check to fail completely, so I have no idea how to use it.
I presume that you are talking about email quotes when you are talking about words preceeded with >.
Right; I should have said "lines starting with '>' ie, quoted text". Pine sends the complete text to ispell, which offers corrections for the quoted text as well - and I don't think I should even try to correct text which is not mine, it is not polite :-)
I have used Ispell and Aspell extensively with different mail clients through the years and they both work out of the box. I don't know what you problem could be.
Well, it works, I only have to manually skip that part of the text. It works but itsn't nice.
Maybe you have configured Pine to not put a space between > and the quote.
Nope :-)
With Aspell you can try:
aspell -e
(this puts it in email mode) and see if it helps.
Mmm, no... it says: [ Alternate speller abnormally terminated (255) ] Ah, I got it working with "aspell -e -c ". I'll leave it, it works. I'll just have to remember to use "i" (ignore) and not "a" (add), which in ispell means "accept". After all, I can not configure pine for more than one language, so I'll use aspell with pine. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
