Ahhhhh. Thanks. Well, but then, this could easily be solved: Add (also to the README) a comment about adding -w "öÖäÄüÜß" to the cmdline of ispell and it works. My .emacs now contains: (custom-set-variables '(ispell-local-dictionary-alist (quote (("american8" "[A-ZÄÖÜäöüß]" "[^A-ZÄÖÜäöüß]" "[']" nil ("-B" "-d" "american" "-w" "öÖäÄüÜß") "~latin1" iso-8859-1))))) which works perfectly also with files containing "Gödel". Thanks for the hint. I would say that a slight adjustment in the README should be enough to close the bug.
