Newbie: Spell-Check

Hi, I've stumbled upon the Spell-Check algorithm put together wonderfully by Andrew Martin (and edited by a few others). I would like to use the spell check (without the GUI) for simple spell checking functionality in my scripts. However, after trying to understand the code, I can't figure out how to use it! I've stripped the part involving the GUI and this is what I'm left with (i hope). To use it, would I write: Output: spell "Helo, this is a test." Secondly, how would I use the "Spell-HTML" function to ignore any email address posted in the sentance? Ex. "Helo, I'm writing from [joe--example--com]". Thanks!!!

Hehe... didn't you write the spell check program Andrew? Perhaps my view is overly simplistic, but doesn't it just scan through the dictionary.txt file and determine a best matching word? Matt

I know Volker has developed a bit of spell checking stuff, but I'm not sure what state it's in, or if he's planning on publishing it anywhere. Maybe he'll jump in here. --Gregg
