Ah, I finally got an aspell build (of CVS head) to work. Rumors were (via the persistence of Kevin Atkinson) that aspell does a better job. Somehow the word "discrepancy" came to mind, so I just typed it as I may, like I had no idea how to spell it. It came out "discreapincy". Using the aspell build, discrepancy was first on the list. The ispell build provided the wonderful "(no spelling suggestions)".
Anyway, it seems good to me. I can't say anything about the relative speed or efficiency of aspell, the files I have tested so far are too small, but if any of you folks can make or get an aspell build, it would be interesting to me to hear what you think. It is those mangled words that spell checkers can never get, and if aspell can do a better job, I am all for it. Chris Winne
