问题
I am having some (more) difficulties getting my emacs config to work. I want to use Flyspell automatic spell checking. When I try to enable automatic spell checking (via the menu bar), I get the following error.
Starting new Ispell process aspell with english dictionary...
Error enabling Flyspell mode:
(Error: The file "/usr/local/lib/aspell-0.60/english" can not be opened
for reading.)
A quick look at /usr/local/lib/aspell-0.60/ reveals that I have no English dictionary installed. More fully, here is what is installed:
Lindsays-MacBook-Pro:lib ljs$ ls aspell-0.60/

Any help greatly appreciated

Looks like you have a broken install of aspell. Assuming you used Homebrew to install it, just uninstall it, and reinstall it.
$ brew uninstall aspell
$ brew update
$ brew install aspell
If you're still having trouble, maybe comment out
(starter-kit-load "starter-kit-aspell.org")
from starter-kit.org so it looks like
;;(starter-kit-load "starter-kit-aspell.org")
This will prevent the starter-kit from loading its flycheck/aspell settings allowing you to use the defaults. You will have to manually enable flyspell on a buffer where you want to use it. Meta-x flyspell-mode will do the trick.
