Emacs does support several other spell checkers, but I want to use enchant in order to share the user dictionary with other applications that use enchant. > With these, on Guix System, I was able to reproduce the behavior of > debian's enchant.

The command-line tool enchant-2 misreports "doesn't", but Gedit, which very probably uses Enchant, correctly accepts "doesn't and four other contractions I tested. It seems Gedit calls the enchant library in a different way than Enchant's own command-line tool. The reason to believe that Gedit uses Enchant are: 1. Wikipedia says so 2. Gedit's spell checker correctly accepts every word I have in the Enchant user dictionary. Best regards -- - <https://jorgemorais.gitlab.io/justice-for-rms/> - I am Brazilian.
