[net.sources] Correct: Announcement and Update

alan@ucf-cs.UUCP (11/03/83)

Correct is a program that is used to correct spelling
mistakes in text files.  It invokes "spell" to find spelling
mistakes and prompts the user for the required corrections.
It has options to invoke "look" to give possible correct spellings.
It also allows you to invoke "grep" to see the context of the
word before making corrections.  Once the corrections have been
made, it invokes the ex editor to make the corrections.

An option in correct allows you to maintain a local dictionary
of words that you know are correct but are flagged by spell.

The source to correct has been posted to net.sources.  The
file is a shell script that will create a directory called
correct with the files correct.c, Makefile and a manual entry.

** Note: the version posted in conjunction with this
	 message is slightly updated (with larger array sizes
	 and slightly better error detection) than the one
	 posted on Tuesday.  Please use the updated version.

Please send any comments or suggestions.
