NAME

sp, sp-from-buffer - give possible spellings
get-next-word - return word at cursor

SYNOPSIS

(sp)
(sp-from-buffer)
(get-next-word)

DESCRIPTION

Sp prompts for a word and then invokes the sp program with the word as an argument. The output of the sp program, a list of words, is placed in a buffer called "sp". If the word is found, then the cursor is positioned at the word. If the word isn't found, the cursor is left at the start of the buffer. In either case the mode line of the buffer indicates whether the word was found.

Sp-from-buffer is the same as sp except that the user is not prompted for the word; the word under or immediately to the left of the cursor is used.

Get-next-word returns the word the cursor is pointing at or the word immediately to the left of the cursor if it is between words.

BUFFERS USED
