  ispell-* allows you to add new words to your own personal dictionary
  and is a better package than spell since it tries to provide
  substitutions for incorrect words for you.  if you don't have the
  ispell routines in your gnuemacs, have your gnuemacs maintainer ftp
  ispell.tar.Z from spam.istc.sri.com.

  this is not yet, i'm afraid, the latest and greatest version of
  ispell although it works well.  does anyone know where the latest
  version exists for anonymous ftp?
