A portuguese ispell dictionary in EMACS

[Fernando Rangel]

Hello,

    I've been using EMACS for a while, frequently to type english and french
texts. But yesterday I had to write in  portuguese and of course had a need
to verify the spell.
    I have aspell dictionary installed  on my system and after having a trip
around the web, I was advised to use the following lisp commands in my
.emacs file.

(setq ispell-dictionary-alist
      (cons '("br_pt"
"[A-Za-z\300\301\302\303\307\311\312\315\323\324\325\332\334\340\341\342\343
\347\351\352\355\364\365\372\374]"
"[^A-Za-z\300\301\302\303\307\311\312\315\323\324\325\332\334\340\341\342\34
3\347\351\352\355\364\365\372\374]"
"[---]" nil ("-B" "-d" "br_pt") "~tex" iso-latin-1)
            ispell-dictionary-alist))



Unforntunattely, nothing has passed (of course  I ask emacs (in .emacs) to
use aspell as spelling tool.... All solutions found use similar technique
and don't work either.

    Any help is welcome.

Thanks,

Fernando
