42 (description
43 "GNU Aspell is a free spell checker designed to eventually replace
44Ispell. It can either be used as a library or as an independent spell
45checker. Its main feature is that it does a superior job of suggesting
46possible replacements for a misspelled word than just about any other
47spell checker out there for the English language. Unlike Ispell, Aspell
48can also easily check documents in UTF-8 without having to use a special
49dictionary. Aspell will also do its best to respect the current locale
50setting. Other advantages over Ispell include support for using
51multiple dictionaries at once and intelligently handling personal
52dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once.")
