I am pleased to announce the release of GNU Aspell 0.60.6.1.  This is a 
long overdue bug fix release.  It fixes most bugs that have been reported 
to me over the last couple of years and a few I discovered myself.

You can find it at the Aspell web page, which is at http://aspell.net .

GNU Aspell is a Free and Open Source spell checker designed to eventually 
replace Ispell. It can either be used as a library or as an independent 
spell checker. Its main feature is that it does a superior job of 
suggesting possible replacements for a misspelled word than just about any 
other spell checker out there for the English language. Unlike Ispell, 
Aspell can also easily check documents in UTF-8 without having to use a 
special dictionary. Aspell will also do its best to respect the current 
locale setting. Other advantages over Ispell include support for using 
multiple dictionaries at once and intelligently handling personal 
dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once.
