Subject: Remove meaningless defconst ispell-version
X-Git-Tag: emacs-26.0.90~1092
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8af9cb220d1e0b16ee7ad4b5514f8d53b152bcf3;p=emacs.git

Remove meaningless defconst ispell-version

* lisp/textmodes/ispell.el (ispell-version): Since ispell.el is now
firmly part of Emacs, and the version hasn’t changed since 2003, and
isn’t used anywhere, remove it.  3rd-party code can better use the
Emacs version, or feature or function checks.
(ispell-check-version): No longer report ispell.el version.
