I see that your GNU EMACS environment also automatically duplicates your postings :-) 1c1 < Article 4075 of comp.text.tex: --- > Article 4076 of comp.text.tex: 6,7c6,7 < Message-ID: < Date: 26 Nov 90 23:39:31 GMT --- > Message-ID: > Date: 26 Nov 90 23:45:58 GMT Incidentally, I think it's not too useful for a program like ispell to recognize \include. Usually, the included files are just macro definitions. In those cases where a text is so long as to be split over several files, you generally want to check each file separately as you write or change it. And almost any shell allows you to use wild-cards if you really want to check everything. I generally use striptex filename | spell No attempts to write a file, no checking in or checking out, no contexts, no queries, no obscure commands (striptex removes words starting with a backslash).
