The problem with ns port is that there is only one major developer for it - Adrian Robert. And unfortunately it is not as solid as on GNU/Linux. I usually try to find a workaround while waiting for a fix. For spellings, I disable flyspell mode and call ispell-buffer maybe once in a month. This is far from ideal though. Leo
Thanks Leo. It helps to know the problem is beyond my control. ispell is quick and fairly easy to use from the command line in case you want to check spelling more than once a month. It's a bit of a hassle to remember to save the buffer before the spell check and then revert the buffer after the check, but even with those steps its way quicker than trying to check spelling within emacs.
