Hi All,

	I am trying to port a shell script I wrote under
Solaris to FreeBSD but I can't find the 'spell' program.
(You know, the one you can do: spell filename 
 and it spits back a sorted list of any word it can't find
 in the dictionary)
	I've searched high and low on the Net but all I
can find are man pages for 'spell' and nothing about it
or the spellprog program.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated in an email 
response to: awdorrin@holli.com or 
awdorrin@ictest.delcoelect.com

Thanks in advance!
