Aspell is an Open Source spell checker designed to eventually replace

|
|
Ispell. Its main feature is that it does a much better job of coming up
|
|
|
|
with possible suggestions than Ispell does. In fact recent tests shows
|
|
|
|
that it even does better than Microsoft Word 97's spell checker or just
|
|
|
|
about any other spell checker I have seen. It also has support for
|
|
|
|
checking (La)TeX and Html files, and run time support for other non
|
|
|
|
English languages. Aspell also is a library however the recommend way to
|
|
|
|
use aspell is through the Pspell library as the actual interface to the
|
|
|
|
aspell library is constantly changing.

This package also contains the English dictionary.
