Aspell currently does not have the ability to look at more than one word at a time. (A word as far as Aspell is concerned is a string of valid characters that can appear in a word.) Aspell is undergoing a major rewrite right now. After that is done support for considering more than one word at a time is one of the things I would like to add. After that it would be very easy to add support for what you are talking about. _______________________________________________ aspell-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/aspell-user
