NAME
- -
- - spell, sprog – find spelling errors
- -
-

SYNOPSIS
- -
- - spell [ options ] ... [ file ] ... -
- - sprog [ options ] [ −f file ]
- -
-

DESCRIPTION
- -
- - Spell looks up words from the named files (standard input default) - in a spelling list and places possible misspellings--words not sanctioned - there--on the standard output. -
- - Spell ignores constructs of troff(1) and its standard preprocessors. - It understands these options:
- −b    Check British spelling.
- −v    Print all words not literally in the spelling list, with derivations.
- −x    Print, marked with =, every stem as it is looked up in the spelling - list, along with its affix classes. -
- - As a matter of policy, spell does not admit multiple spellings - of the same word. Variants that follow general rules are preferred - over those that don’t, even when the unruly spelling is more common. - Thus, in American usage, ‘modelled’, ‘sizeable’, and ‘judgment’ - are rejected in favor of ‘modeled’, ‘sizable’, and - ‘judgement’. Agglutinated variants are shunned: ‘crewmember’ and - ‘backyard’ cede to ‘crew member’ and ‘back yard’ (noun) or ‘back-yard’ - (adjective).

BUGS
- -
- - The heuristics of deroff(1) used to excise formatting information - are imperfect. -
- - The spelling list’s coverage is uneven; in particular biology, - medicine, and chemistry, and perforce proper names, not to mention - languages other than English, are covered very lightly.
