[opensuse] spell check in joe

I copied /etc/joe/jstarrc to .jstarrc, then modified it:
Ispell
:def ispellfile filt,"cat >ispell.tmp;ispell ispell.tmp /dev/tty;cat ispell.tmp;/bin/rm ispell.tmp",rtn,retype
:def ispellword psh,nextword,markk,prevword,markb,filt,"cat >ispell.tmp;ispell ispell.tmp /dev/tty;tr -d

I comment out the first one by adding spaces, and then I get the following error when starting jstar:
There were errors in '/home/cer/.jstarrc'. Use it anyway (y,n)?
make sure that the lines didn't wrap when you edited. Inserting a space is correct, but you might save a copy and remove completely the references you do not want.
If I say "yes" spell does not work, it wants to use ispell, and ignores the installed aspell.
What now?
I'll have to try uninstalling ispell.
[..]
Now it complains that ispell is not found, ignoring aspell :-/
I can no longer use "ispell", because I'm used to the keys of aspell, for which "I" is "ignore all", and for ispell it means "insert" in the local dictionary. I can't use it!
And I don't know how to force jstar to use only aspell!
I use joe, not jstar, but I tested altering .joerc by adding a space at the line start to comment out and also by removing completely the references to aspell and both worked :^) -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hold on! What I want is to use aspell, not ispell. You are trying the other way round. Here it doesn't. Somehow it doesn't detect aspell and wants to use ispell. If the ispell macro is commented out it complains of bad resource file; if I uninstall ispell it complains of no ispell in the system.

Oh, well... thanks anyway. Maybe I'll have to check the source code, one day that I'm bored. Maybe recompile without ispell devel in the system, so that it is forced to use aspell.

Same error. Worst: I can not quit, I had to kill jstar. As to the symlink, that's inadvisable: the user interface of both programs is different and leads to user error. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
