I'm just starting out trying Aspell under Windows Vista, and can't get a \
configuration file going.

Take the option to backup or not as an example.  The default is to backup.  Now, if I \
put --dont-backup on the command line, it works, no backup is made.  My command line \
is in the following batch file of two lines:

"C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin\aspell"     check     --dont-backup     testaspell.txt
PAUSE

But I haven't succeeded in doing the same thing via a configuration file.  I run the \
following batch file of two lines:

"C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin\aspell"     check     --per-conf   "C:\Program \
Files\Aspell\data\aspell.cnf"     --conf   "C:\Program Files\Aspell\data\aspell.cnf"  \
testaspell.txt PAUSE

and I have a file    aspell.cnf    in folder  C:\Program Files\Aspell\data   \
containing the line    backup  false    but the backup is still made.

There is no information about whether my nominated configuration file has been found \
and opened or not.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?  Many thanks.
