[OS X Emacs] cocoAspell and Aquamacs 1.3a

[Ivan Werning]

Although my Aquamacs works fine with Aspell english, I am actually  
getting the same exact error message with my LyX installation. I don't  
really know anything about the directory structure of these  
dictionaries. Any idea how this can be fixed?
