Spell Checking text file on the terminal


Written by Pavs on August 22nd, 2007




Spell is a very helpfull program that looks through a text file and reports any words that it finds in the text file that are not in the dictionary.

To use it non-interactively type in spell filename.txt

To use it interactively type in aspell -c filename.txt

2007-08-22-053329_1280x800_scrot

Thats all.
