NAME
       spell - print all words in a file not present in the dictionary

SYNOPSIS
       spell file

EXAMPLES
       spell document	   # Print the spelling errors on stdout

DESCRIPTION
       Spell  is  the  MINIX 3 spelling checker.  It is actually a short shell
       script.	First, the program prep strips off the roff, nroff, and	 troff
       control	lines,	and the punctuation, and lists each word on a separate
       line.  These words are then sorted.  The resulting output is then  com‐
       pared  to the dictionary.  Words present in the file but not present in
       the  dictionary	are  listed.   The  dictionary	must  be  located   in
       /usr/lib/dict/words.

SEE ALSO
       nroff(1), prep(1).
