Most of responders told me that "ispell" is what I want.  It can be got from
celray.cs.yale.edu via anonymous ftp.  Directory is /u/public/ispell/ and
contains the following:
    dict.shar.Z    137,622
    ispell.shar.Z  108,435
    ispell.el       22,712
Unfortunately, I cannot access such a machine.
Fortunately, John sent me ispell.el.
Unfortunately*2, our ispell command rejects "-v" option.  Sigh...

Kevin sent me a powerspell program.

Thank you:
