Spellcheck in vim 7.0 doesn't seem to work
I'm just trying out vim 7.0 but I must be misunderstanding vimspell. The commmand :SpellCheck gives Not an editor command and \ss does nothing. I do have ispell in place. I'm sure I'm missing something important in the help file but if someone can point me to the right place I'd be grateful.

Obviously, there is no editor command SpellCheck and you don't need ispell, since Vim has an internal spell checker. Just do :h spell and read the manual. I'm sure I'm missing something important in the help file but if someone can point me to the right place I'd be grateful. Set your language with :set spelllang=en (or whatever language you want). With :set spell you turn spell checking on and with :set nospell you turn it off again. If the dictionary of your language is not available, just follow the dialogues to download it. Best wishes, Georg Thanks for the clarification. These commands work fine, which is what I was looking for. But :h spell produces information only about vimspell and vimspell commands. It does not give the information you supplied. I still don't see how you are supposed to locate that.

Just some guesswork on my part... Looks to me like you have (at least the help for) a vimspell plugin loaded. Does :help spell-quickstart bring up a different helpfile?
