Then when upgrading the user chose UNIX mode (binary mode) mounts. ispell now gets the \r as part of the data in the record. To correct this, you can: 1) mount -t c:/path/to/ispell.exe /bin/ispell 2) rebuild ispell and add the /lib/textmode.o object to the link process 3) modify ispell to open it's files in text mode or modify the fd's with setmode. 4) convert the line endings in the offending data files.
