  • 0

Everytime I run ispell-buffer and add things to the private dictionary. It asks me confirmation whether I want to save it or not at the end. Can I turn this off?? So it doesn’t ask me the confirmation and just automatically saves it.

Then on a side note in addition to that. After I add something to the personal dictionary it doesn’t seem to unmark the red underline until next time I pass over the word. Can I have ispell immediately rescan the document after running it so these red underlines disappear. I have saved the word in the private dictionary but still won’t remove it. It is just quite distracting.

Thanks for any help.

    Rupert’s answer let me know the function to set. Seems when doing this that it also solves problem 2 if you are running it on that word. If you run it on a region the red underline still remains.
