Ispell update

Ispell was not in my path because it was not installed. When 
Konqueror couldn't find it any where, I began to wonder. In Software 
Manager, I did a search of installed for *spell*, and Mandrake's 
default install gave me Aspell, which according to the description is 
supposed to be a replacement for Ispell. Unfortunately, none of the 
other software packages use it. I installed Ispell, and now I have 
spell checking in e-mail clients and word processors. No editing of 
bashrc was even required. It does need an education though. I've been 
doing a lot of "adds". Aspell may have a more extensive dictionary, 
but no progs require it.
