You can get Robin Fairbairn's mods to DECUS SPELL (originally VASSAR
SPELL) via anonymous ftp from ftp.spc.edu.  You'll need:

	[.MACRO32]UNZIP.EXE
	[.MACRO32.SAVESETS]SPELL.ZIP
	[.MACRO32.SAVESETS]SPELL_DICTIONARY.ZIP

You can also get them via e-mail by sending the following commands in
the body of a mail message to FILESERV@WKUVX1.BITNET:

SEND SPELL
SEND SPELL_DICTIONARY
SEND FILESERV_TOOLS		!Not needed if you have MFTU and UnZip v5.x

The SPELL distribution includes the Pascal sources, .OBJs, and a .EXE
linked under VMS v5.1 (I think that was the version).
