Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Ispell is a fast, screen-oriented spell checker that shows you your errors in the context of the original file and suggests possible corrections when it can figure them out. Compared to UNIX spell, it is faster and much easier to use. Ispell can also handle languages other than English. Ispell has a long history and many people have contributed to the current version--some of the major contributors include R. E. Gorin, Pace Willisson, Walt Buehring, and Geoff Kuenning. You can find a short description in the directory /usr/share/doc/packages/ispell/. Authors: -------- R. E. Gorin Pace Willisson <pace@ai.mit.edu> Walt Buehring Goeff Kuenning <geoff@ITcorp.com>
