If I run ispell as root it works. If I run it as a user, it aborts with the message: "Screen too small: need at least 10 lines." This occurs with Red Hat 5.2 and 6.0, both in console mode and in X. It occurs with the version of ispell in RH 5.2 and the version in RH 6.0 Anyone got a fix? Apologies for posting here, but I've been unable to find a solution to this problem after considerable searching of Usenet. TIA, -rex -- Linux 2.2.1
