  Info request for a high school teacher friend:

  Is anyone familiar enough with how the UNIX(TM) "spell" command works
  to email a brief overview of the algorithms?

  Also of interest would be other algorithms for such programs that
  might be superior to the UNIX command.

  Please use EMAIL.

  thanks,
  Kathy Harris
