<h1> aspell</h1> 
<p>Spellcheck a file. </p>
<pre>Syntax
      aspell check [<i>options</i>] <i>filename</i>

Key
   –mode=<i>mode</i>
       The mode to use when checking files.
       The available modes are none, <u>url</u>, email, sgml, tex, texinfo, nroff and any
       others available on your system. <a href="http://aspell.net/man-html/Notes-on-Various-Filters-and-Filter-Modes.html">more..</a>

   –dont-backup
       Don't create a backup file. Normally, if there are any corrections the Aspell utility
       will append .bak to the existing file name and then create a new file with corrections
       made during spell checking.

   –sug-mode=<i>mode</i>
       The suggestion <i>mode</i> to use where mode is one of ultra, fast, normal, or bad-spellers.
       For more information on these modes see Notes on the Different Suggestion Modes.

   –lang=<i>name</i>
   -l <i>name</i>
       The language the document is written in. The default depends on the current locale.

   –encoding=<i>name</i>
       Encoding the document is expected to be in. The default depends on the current locale.

   –master=<i>name</i>
   -d <i>name</i>
       The main dictionary to use.

   –keymapping=<i>name</i>
       The keymapping to use. Either aspell for the default mapping or ispell to use the same
       mapping that the Ispell utility uses.
