- I got a copy from a friend who got it off BIX (I think...). Anyway, I like
- GUIspell, but I really got it to use if with the new GNUEmacs. It uses
- ARexx to communicate to ISpell (both GNUEmacs and GUIspell talk to the
- same ISpell). It also comes with some rexx scripts that can be used from
- a CLI to spell words. For example, you type "spell <some word>" (where
- spell is a rexx script or an alias to call the rexx script) and ISpell
- returns back alternate spellings for that word (if it is spelled wrong).
- Its slick and fast. The idea is to have a single dictionary for all
- programs to use...
