[SM-USERS] squirrelspell aspell ispell no want talk-o

[David P. <pet...@du...>]

I posted this over at squirrelmail-plugins and i'm still hearing the
crickets...  so figured i'd give it a shot here.

I'm trying to figure out why the Squirrelspell plugin isn't talking to
ispell or aspell.  I have Aspell 0.50.5 alpha installed and its working
fine.  If i use ispell and aspell from a terminal it does work.  However,
when my users try to use squirrelspell, no matter how badly things are
spelled, squirrelspell returns 'no errors were found'.

Now i checked the normal stuff...  i redirected sqspell_config.php to a
bad location for the ispell binary, and it produced a different error
(ispell could not be found).  then i fixed the location as such:

$SQSPELL_APP = array('English' => '/usr/bin/ispell -a',
                     'Spanish' => '/usr/bin/ispell -d spanish -a');

which produced the same as the original result.  Then i tried aspell:

$SQSPELL_APP = array('English' => '/usr/bin/aspell -a',
                     'Spanish' => '/usr/bin/aspell -d spanish -a');

still the same result.

my configuration is as follows...
Fedora Core 3 with the current versions of Apache and Perl (i don't know
how to get the version numbers, but i keep a well-updated system)
Squirrelmail 1.4.4 with one plugin: squirrelspell 0.3.8

in terms of obscure information that may be pertinent - the only thing odd
about this machine is that i have to do a restorecon on any files that i
manually create or copy.  I have no idea why that is, and kinda stumbled
upon the command after a long day of smacking my head against the wall.

I recently installed HTML_mail and got that one working with ist built-in
spell check, but it just isn't as clean, and i'm trying to keep my users
away from html mail - - if i give it to them, i'll never be able to take
it away.

thanks to anyone who can help...
