So, I just got around to enabling flyspell mode in my xemacs
initialization, using:
(global-flyspell-mode t)
The problem is that for some modes (like say emacs-lisp-mode - or any
other programming language mode) flyspell is being way too aggressive.
For example, it isn't terribly useful that flyspell tells me that
'defvar' is misspelled. ('defvar' is misspelled, but it isn't
useful).
So anyway, I was thinking that it would be more useful if flyspell
only checked comments in programming modes.
Seems like it could be done with flyspell-mode-predicate
(put 'emacs-lisp-mode 'flyspell-mode-predicate '....)
like maybe flyspell could only look at words that are in the
font-lock-comment-face.
Has somebody else done this already? This issue seems vaguely
familiar.

Wouldn't it be yet more useful if flyspell cooperated with the mode
and learned how to spell its keywords? Comments are full of stuff
like "this defvar does ...".

Sure - but that sounded more complicated and a lot harder to get right.
Actually, now that I think about it, the language specific keywords
are probably pretty easy to handle, but you would also have to do
something to ignore the functions and variables defined and used in
the code. For example, <flyspell> and <defs> is shown as misspelled in:
(flyspell-accept-buffer-local-defs)
The problem is that the whole word is correct or not depending on
whether or not (defun flyspell-accept-buffer-local-defs ...) form.

New subject: config problem :(
hey, well i'm finally am starting to like the way i have xemacs set up.
but i had two questions, how do you get it so that your tags support functions/macro's
that are defined in the headers you include.
like in vim, if you hit cntrl-p and you include various headers.. it will include the
functions and macros' you call from there.
is this possible in xemacs?
and another question i have, is how do you get it so that xemacs will auto tab for you?
xemacs tabs the right amount of space for me, but, i have to hit 'tab' for it to
move to the right column.
or it just sits on column one until it reaches a semi colon or ')'.
another stupid little idiom i thought was, after you type a #define blah, you can't
tab after typing blah, have you have to esc-i it. i thought that's kinda of wierd as
well.
and how do you get it so that escape-i doesn't insert spaces?
for all it's worth i put my custom.el and init.el on the net, just in case you can see
what's up with my settings..

well, i'm hoping someone can help me ;/

You may get an answer here, but you very well may not.
Also try comp.emacs.xemacs, which is a more appropriate channel for
this kind of question. You get more answers faster.

Set flyspell-global-modes to something that doesn't include Gnus.
Or simply add flyspell-mode to e.g. text-mode-hook.
There are a lot of modes in which flyspell is really not appropriate.
