              generate an overview file, grouping by error and not by file

       --dict=file or -d file
              load a file with a list of words to consider correct; can be used multiple times

       --batch-add=file
              load a file with a list of words to add to the X-POFile-SpellExtra section of each
              of the target PO files; can be used multiple times; when used, the actual spelling
              process is not run

       --command=command
              the command used for actually spell checking the text, by default aspell
              --encoding=utf-8 -l; if you want to use ispell, try something like --comand="ispell
              -l" or --comand="iconv -t iso-8859-1 | ispell -l"

INTERACTIVE MODE

       In interactive mode you iterate through each of the errors found. In each prompt you can
       press a to add the word to a file's X-POFile-SpellExtra entry, n to ignore all further
       errors from this file, Enter to ignore this error or, if you are using one or more
       dictionary files, the number of the file (1, 2, ...) to add the word to that dictionary
       file.

PO FILE HEADER DIRECTIVES

       POFileSpell recognizes one PO file header directive. As with all gettext lint tools, this
       directive is prefixed with X-POFile.

       X-POFile-SpellExtra: word
              adds the word to the file's list of accepted words

DICTIONARY FILE FORMAT

       Dictionary files are just lists of words, one on each line. For example:

       word 1
       word 2
       word n
