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 compared  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.
