I am using Aspell from the shell, in the following way:
aspell -c foo.txt

I have eliminated the --disable-curses flag, and I have noticed that *it
is possible* to change the misspelled word by using:

r
With: <Option number> INTRO

I have to say that I didn't think of this before (Sorry!). The reason is
that in other versions of Aspell I have used (.32.6 alpha) this was not
needed, and pressing the option number directly would make the
substitution. In addition, it is a difference of 1 vs. 3 keystrokes, which
for a bad speller like me is a lot :)

My question is:

Is there any way to change this behavior to avoid having to press the 'r'
key, so that it is possible to use the option number directly (one
keystroke only)?

Thanks.
