This is what I use...  It came from ccvaxa!bobvan, I believe.

1)  In a directory in your search path, place the following file "vispell":

tee /tmp/vis$$
echo SpellingList
spell /tmp/vis$$
rm /tmp/vis$$

2)  In your .exrc or EXINIT place the following macros. "^[" stands for escape
in the macro at that point.  Remember that you'll need to prefix the
escape with a control-V so that it doesn't prematurely terminate the
map command.  These macros clobber buffer z.

map #1 GI/\<^[A\>^["zdd@z
map #2 1G!Gvispell^[

To use --

	a) edit your submission/file...
	b) hit #2 (or function key 2 if your terminal has it)
	c) a list of misspelled words is tacked on to the end of your file
	d) to eliminate valid words, such as "stevea" & "ARPAnet", go to the
	   end of the file, and back up, deleting valid words as you go.
	d) hit #1 (function key 1) to go to the first occurrence of that word.
	e) correct it if necessary -- if you think you may have misspelled it
	   twice, hit "/" to find the next occurrence, etc.
	f) hit #1 until you are searching for "SpellingList" -  this means
	   you have corrected all of the words in the list...
	g) rejoice in your 99% error-free article 

Hope this helps...
