Any hopes of getting a spell check feature?

Spellcheck
Re: Spellcheck
Been discussed before. Would be a welcome option, although no time to add it in atm (patches welcome).
Re: Spellcheck
If you have some dictionary file in text form on your computer, you can make something rudimentary with grep (on Unix-like systems). Maybe something similar exists for Windows.
On my Mac I use:
I also have:
Which merely gives a string (for cecho()) to show whether a given word was found in the dictionary exactly like that.
But yeah, it would of course be much more useful if a spellcheck feature checked everything without having to type in additional commands for every word you want to check.
My spellchecker also has the problem that this dictionary file only knows American spellings and doesn't recognize British spellings as correct.
The fun thing about the dict() function is though that you can use it for totally different purposes. Such as finding rhymes! (Just do dict("^.*ortive$") to find out that unsportive rhymes with contortive! Yay!)
On my Mac I use:
With this you can simply do a regex dictionary lookup. dict("^house$") will for instance simply return "house", dict("^house") will return any words found that begin with "house" (such as "housework"), or dict("^ho.se$") will return hoise, hoose, horse, house.

Added Hunspell spell checking.
Re: Spellcheck
Is there any way to add your own words to the inbuilt spellchecker?
