This archive contains an Installer.app package for GNU ispell-3.1.20.
Ispell is a fast screen-oriented spelling 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.
If installed in other than /usr/gnu, you may need to work some magic for
ispell to find its dictionaries (Define the environment variable
ISPELL_DICTIONARY to point to the appropriate directory containing
the ispell.dict file (in binary format, be careful about endianess!).
Check the ispell documentation for details.
Note that in order to deliver this as a FAT binary, I needed to include two
hashed dictionaries, one for each byte-order type (big/little endian). Be
careful about this when attempting to add or move dictionaries.
