<expand|tmdoc-title|Spell checking>
If the program <verbatim|ispell> has been installed on your system, then
you may use it to check your text for misspelled words by pressing
<shortcut|(spell-start)> or <submenu|Edit|spell>. Notice that you might have to
verify that the dictionaries corresponding to the languages in which your
texts have been written have been installed on your system; this is usually
the case for English.
When you launch the spell checker (either on the whole text or a selected
region), you will be prompted at each misspelled word and the footer
displays the available options:
<\description>
<expand|item*|a)>Accepts the misspelled word and all its future
occurrences in the text.
<expand|item*|r)>Replace the misspelled word by a correction you have to
enter.
<expand|item*|i)>Indicate that the ``misspelled'' word is actually
correct and that it has to be inserted in your personal dictionary.
<expand|item*|1-9)>Several suggested corrections for your misspelled
word.
</description>
Notice that <verbatim|ispell> just checks for misspelled words. No
grammatical faults will be detected.
When starting the spell checker, it will use the dictionary of the language
which is active at the current cursor position (or the start of a
selection). Only text in that language will be checked for. If your
document contains text in several languages, then you will have to launch
the spell checker once for each language being used.
