It seems you are right. However, ...

That is correct. It worked for me so far since default encoding was utf-8. =
So,
your patch should be committed in any case.

Now comes the interesting part. I took your example (it is Czech, isn't it?)
and tried it with aspell-0.50 and 0.60 in a pipe mode, that's how kspell is
using aspell/ispell, isn't it? Please have a look at the result, it is at

http://www.uni-bremen.de/~kmashrab/aspell-0.50-bug.png

=46rom the screenshot one can see that for the first misspelled word "vam"
apell-0.60 gives "& vam 61 27: ...", but aspell-0.50 gives "& vam 48 31: ..=
=2E".
=46ist number is suggestion counter and the second is the offset from the
beginning of the line in characters. Correct value of an offset in this cas=
e=20
is
27, not 31. Apparently, aspell-0.50 "thinks" in 8-bit encoding. I do not kn=
ow
if it is bug or not.

Now I understand what that piece of code I commented out was for, it was ju=
st
a workaround. One does not need that for Aspell-0.60.

I vote for "#ifdef HAVE_ASPELL_60" approach. I do not know how to implement
it, though.

What do the others think? Any idea how to solve it?

Cheers,
Mashrab.
