Can someone please tell me what long-names problem is? The UPDATE file for
ispell2.0.2 says:

Oh yes, I almost forgot: the original documentation didn't
mention that ispell is a long-name program.  If your "File:"
display on the top line actually contains the misspelled word,
you have long-name problems.  My fixes don't address long names,
because I finally have a way to compile long-name programs,
thanks to "hash8".

Great! But I don't. Or does gcc handle this? In any case I used both
cc and gcc and still have problems with ispell--namely it doesn't
recognize plurals correctly when the singular is in the dictionary.

Does anyone have an alternative spell program they are playing with?
