I am having some difficulty getting flyspell/aspell to run on emacs 27.2, MacOS 12.01. I think I need to install or enable a dictionary, but no ideas on how to do this.
If I type 'M-x flyspell-mode' I get the following error:
Starting new Ispell process /usr/local/bin/aspell with default dictionary...done
Error enabling Flyspell mode:
(Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_GB".)
Sounds like a dictionary is missing. I have the following in my init.el
;; Spell-check
(require 'flyspell)
(setq flyspell-issue-message-flag nil
ispell-local-dictionary "en_GB"
ispell-program-name "/usr/local/bin/aspell")
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'flyspell-mode)
(add-hook 'prog-mode-hook 'flyspell-prog-mode)
If I type which aspell
in Terminal it returns /usr/local/bin/aspell
