NAME¶
tmispell - ispell wrapper which uses Voikko for spell-checking
SYNOPSIS¶
tmispell [
-F config_file] [
ispell_options]
[
file ...]
DESCRIPTION¶
Tmispell is an
ispell(1) wrapper which uses Voikko spell-checking
system to do the actual spell-checking for Finnish language.
What makes
Tmispell very useful is that many programs (e.g. email clients
and word processors) use Ispell for spell-checking. Since
Tmispell is a
transparent wrapper for Ispell, other programs that would normally use Ispell
will automatically use
Tmispell (and therefore Voikko) without any
changes needed. Additionally,
Tmispell is able to launch the real
Ispell if
Tmispell does not support the selected language. It is not
necessary to have the real Ispell installed, though. Tmispell works fine
without it, but currently Finnish is the only supported language then.
Tmispell can be used from command line exactly like Ispell. If
Tmispell is correctly installed, the command “ispell”
actually starts
Tmispell. It can be used to spell-check any text
file(s) given as command line parameter. If a text file is given,
Tmispell starts in interactive mode. Press “?” to get help
on available commands in interactive mode.
