        !            15: 
        !            16: spell should normally be invoked with the document in the form of
        !            17: the input  to the  text formatter  nroff rather than  the output.
        !            18: spell deletes  control information  to the formatter  by invoking

        !            46: Dictionaries are not provided for languages other than English.
        !            47: 
        !            48: No dictionary  can be  complete.  You must  add new words  to the
        !            49: dictionary to ensure that it fully meets your needs.
        !            50: 
        !            51: Obscure words (such as opcodes, variable names, etc.) are flagged
        !            52: as spelling errors.
        !            53: 
        !            54: Because the  data files required for spell  are quite large, they

        !            56: sufficient disk  space.  As a result, the  command might not work
