  10. Asking archie about ispell (which I found out about via elm), gives me several
  11. good pointers, but I fear that it'll need * gnu c to compile. I'm not keen to
  12. install a (fairly difficult - to judge from the net traffic) compiler in order
  13. to make a spelling checker.  So:
  14.  
  15. Has anyone managed to mung ispell so that it's compilable with "ordinary" irix
  16. tools?  Or is there a "trusted" place to grab the binary?
  17.  
  18. * Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
