✔️ Spell check documents in Linux using ispell

✔️ Spell check documents in Linux using ispell

You should really only run this command on text documents, not binary (Word, StarOffice, etc.) documents.

At the command line, enter:

ispell <document name>

The following screen will appear highlighting the word with spell errors and suggestions will be shown at the bottom:

image 14 1024x580 - &#x2714;&#xfe0f; Spell check documents in Linux using ispell

If you encounter an error:

image 13 - &#x2714;&#xfe0f; Spell check documents in Linux using ispell

then you first need to run:

yum install aspell-en.x86_64
