hunspell: List misspelled words in a file.
$ hunspell -l ${filename}
try on your machine
The "hunspell -l ${filename}" command is used to spellcheck a file or document using the Hunspell spell checking tool.
- "hunspell" refers to the command-line interface of the Hunspell tool.
- "-l" flag is used to tell Hunspell to perform a spelling check.
- "${filename}" is a placeholder representing the actual name of the file or document that you want to spellcheck.
To use this command, you need to replace "${filename}" with the name or path of the file you want to spellcheck. For example, if you have a file named "example.txt" located in your current directory, you would use the command "hunspell -l example.txt" to spellcheck it.
When you run this command, Hunspell will analyze the contents of the specified file and check the spelling of each word. It will provide a list of potentially misspelled words, allowing you to identify and correct any mistakes.
