NAME

       tmispell - ispell wrapper which uses Voikko for spell-checking

SYNOPSIS

       tmispell [-F config_file] [ispell_options] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Tmispell  is an ispell(1) wrapper which uses Voikko spell-checking system to do the actual spell-checking
       for Finnish language.

       What makes Tmispell very useful is that many programs (e.g. email clients and word processors) use Ispell
       for  spell-checking.  Since  Tmispell  is  a  transparent  wrapper  for Ispell, other programs that would
       normally use Ispell will automatically use Tmispell (and therefore Voikko) without  any  changes  needed.
       Additionally,  Tmispell  is  able  to  launch  the  real Ispell if Tmispell does not support the selected
       language. It is not necessary to have the real Ispell installed, though. Tmispell works fine without  it,
       but currently Finnish is the only supported language then.

       Tmispell  can  be  used  from  command  line exactly like Ispell. If Tmispell is correctly installed, the
       command “ispell” actually starts Tmispell.  It can be used to  spell-check  any  text  file(s)  given  as
       command  line  parameter.  If a text file is given, Tmispell starts in interactive mode. Press “?” to get
       help on available commands in interactive mode.

OPTIONS

              Use the configuration file config_file instead of the default /etc/tmispell.conf.

       ispell_options
              Tmispell should understand all the options that Ispell does. For more information  about  Ispell's
              options, see ispell(1).

FILES

       /etc/tmispell.conf
