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 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.
