SPELL 1/11/79 SPELL NAME spell - find spelling errors SYNOPSIS spell [-ddictname] [file] ... DESCRIPTION Spell copies the named files (or standard input if none are specified) to standard output while looking up each word in a dictionary. If any spelling errors are found in a particular line, an additional line will be printed immediately following the line with asterisks (*) beneath the offending words. If the -d switch is used, `spell' will use the files `dictname' and `dictname'dx for the dictionary and index. FILES dict - a dictionary file dictdx - the index generated by isam for the dictionary SEE ALSO isam - generate an index for pseudo-indexed-sequential access ospell - the script pipeline suggested in K&P for spelling errors DIAGNOSTICS AUTHORS Joe Sventek BUGS This is a skeleton spelling error detector.
