# aspell
|
|
|
|
GNU Aspell is a Free and Open Source spell checker designed to eventually replace Ispell.
|
|
It can either be used as a library or as an independent spell checker.
|
|
Its main feature is that it does a much better job of coming up with possible suggestions than just about any other spell checker out there for the English language, including Ispell and Microsoft Word.
|
|
It also has many other technical enhancements over Ispell such as using shared memory for dictionaries and intelligently handling personal dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once.
