I use ispell in irssi, and it's not that good at unravelling the noodliness of my mind and guessing what I meant to spell. If one character is wrong, it will make the right suggestion, but if two characters are wrong, forget about it. If ispell can't make a suggestion, I then I google it, and google always knows what I meant to spell. Pretty scary. here's a weird example: dribl ispell says & dribl 5 0: drib, dribs, drib l, drib-l, drill aspell says & dribl 19 0: dribble, drably, tribal, drill, dribbler, drivel, drub, durable, durably, dbl, driblet, droll, drool, drab, treble, drawl, trial, tribe, trill I have heard in the past aspell is better, and I would concur. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
