You need ispell instead of aspell, is this right? You mean aspell
does not recognize words with umlauts?

Strange. What brought you "lib/aspell-0.60/"?

Examine the below elisp variables and the PATH environment variables.
ispell-program-name
ispell-extra-args
exec-path
(getenv "PATH") ;; the "PATH" environment variables
I think X11- and nowindow Emacsen inherits the environment variables
from the shell. Aquamacs possibly provides additional support for fink.

The latest Panther version autoloads mac-key-mode.el, which is
located in site-lisp/mac directory. Check if the file is present or not.

At present, since proper font is not assigned to the "U with caron"
character (U+01D3). When assigned, I'm ready to convert two
characters ("U" and "caron") into U+01D3.
