Subject: 23.3.50; flyspell-mode auto-activated in non-text modes
Date: Wed, 08 Jun 2011 23:28:10 +0100

I have flyspell mode configured to come on automatically, by customizing
text-mode-hook to contain turn-on-flyspell. (At least, as far as I know,
that’s it!)

However, I find that, apparently as a result, flyspell-mode is activated
in lots of modes where it’s not wanted, in particular programming modes.
My workaround is to add flyspell-prog-mode to each such mode’s hook,
which seems to override “pure” flyspell-mode. Actually, it would be
useful if there were a global option to switch flyspell-prog-mode on for
all programming modes.

Finally, flyspell-mode is activated in Info-mode, which is a pain, as it
slows things right down. (It also has very little utility, though I
suppose it could be useful for proof-reading.)

That doesn't sound right.  Can you provide a recipe to reproduce
the problem?

At present, I can't, even with a newly started Emacs using my init
files. It seems to be the result of something going wrong during a
session.

Maybe leave this bug open for now and I'll see if I can make any progress?

Emacs 24.1 will have prog-mode-hook.

I cannot reproduce that either.
