Hi, Racket Discourse.
I am trying to get the spell checker to work in DrRacket on Windows 10 but I keep receiving the following error:
The spell program (C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\aspell.exe) did not respond after 0.1 seconds
As you can tell from the output, I installed Aspell using MSYS2, since I got the same error when I installed Aspell using the win32 binary provided on the GNU Aspell page.
At first, I thought that it might have something to do with the fact that I had no dictionaries present, which was slightly difficult to configure by hand on my Windows machine, so I resorted to the MSYS2 route.
The aspell.exe
path is present in my system path, although I assume it would have complained that it could not be found, otherwise.
The Aspell software works fine from the command line, since I can spell check arbitrary texts in this manner; it just seems like DrRacket is unhappy about something. The functionality also works perfectly fine on my EndeavourOS machine.
Does anyone know if this timeout can be configured somehow (if it is even pertinent), in the event that Aspell is reacting too slowly to DrRacket's request?
