I use aspell from within Emacs. I have some documents that are stored in 
utf-8 and use the unicode code points for curly quotes (8220, 8221, 
8216, and 8217) rather than ASCII straight quotes. Is there any way to 
get aspell to recognize a curly apostrophe as a word constituent so 
contractions (e.g. isn't, except where the ' is Unicode character 8217) 
are recognized as single words, correctly spelled words. At the moment 
it sees "isn" and complains about it.

-Peter
