Dear Carl
I tried WSL last week and it is a marvel. The (relatively simple) linux
programs I installed run from the windows start menu flawlessly. I
think I have installed Aspell for linux but I don't have a graphical
interface and it doesn't appear in the menu so I am not quite sure how
to get at it. (I'm not used to the linux command line.)
Best wishes
Paul

I have tried the new version of Aspell. I can see that it is much
shorter but the behaviour is still the same, exiting immediately with no
separate command window. I can confirm, however, that after launching
Aspell independently of XY4 a single keypress will end the otherwise
interminable wait. After that it appears to function as normal.
Incidentally I am using version 22H2 of Windows 10.
Best wishes

Paul,
Ah, no.
I made another run at ASPL. It's simpler now, without being materially
different from the last version, so in principle there is no reason why
it should work for you now when it didn't before. Still, who knows? it
might be worth a try. You can download it here:
