SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the spell command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used
by others), because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.
spell is a program that emulates the traditional Unix spell command by calling the Ispell utility.
It is a spell checking program which prints each misspelled word on a line of its own.

below. For a complete description, see the Info files.
