.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fISpell\fR is the
|
|
\s-2MINIX\s+2
|
|
spelling checker.
|
|
It is actually a short shell script.
|
|
First, the program \fIprep\fR strips off the \fIroff\fR,
|
|
\fInroff\fR, and \fItroff\fR control lines,
|
|
and the punctuation, and lists each word on a separate line. These words are
|
|
then sorted. The resulting output is then compared to the dictionary. Words
|
|
present in the file but not present in the dictionary are listed. The
|
|
dictionary must be located in \fI/usr/lib/dict/words\fR.
