ispell on Windows

================================================================ Dear Bug Team! Although the ispell package installs by the automated installer and appears in the xemacs-packages\lisp subdirectory, it does not work! When I try to launch the speller the minibuffer reports "No such file or directory, ispell" It is very important that the Windows version of xemacs works properly with the standard packages, particularly the speller, as this is a standard feature and necessary for many people's work. I would be more than happy to provide any additional information that is required, although I hope that you will find it all in the automatically generated report below. Yours, --Samuel Lipoff ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- OS version: Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195] (Windows XP) OS: Windows_NT XEmacs 21.4.10 "Military Intelligence (Windows)" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.
