FSERR (FIND_SPELLING_ERRORS) -- Find spelling errors.
usage: FSERR [pathname...] [-F] [-N] [-U] [-S] [-C pathname ] [-D pathname]
FORMAT
FSERR [pathname ...] [options]
FSERR copies the named files line-by-line to standard output, while looking up
each word in a dictionary. If it finds any spelling errors on a line, or if
it finds words that are not in the spelling dictionary, FSERR prints the line
containing the questionable word and asks whether or not the word is spelled
correctly. If you indicate that the word is misspelled, you are prompted for
the correct spelling. FSERR corrects the spelling on standard output and
continues.
ARGUMENTS
pathname
(optional) Specify file containing text to be checked. Multiple
pathnames are permitted separated by blanks.
Default if omitted: read standard input
OPTIONS
-F Process words just after a period ('.') in column 1 (i.e.,
FMT directives). The default is to ignore such "words".
-N Process digits. The default is to ignore digits.
-U Underline misspelled words instead of prompting for
correction or verification.
-S Collect and print statistics on dictionary use.
-C pathname Write words that are not in the dictionary, but are
correctly spelled, into 'pathname'.
-D pathname Add the words in the file 'pathname' to the dictionary used
for this run.
