    description
    This script is based on Claudio Fleiner’s spell checker and uses ispell (or aspell)
    to highlight spelling errors, and provides mappings (including a popup menu opened
    by right clicking on a mispelled word) to correct them, with suggestions.It is possible to set up the script to do automatic spellchecking (à la
    word — the current visible window is checked, and errors are highlighted on the fly).
    For that, just redefine the spell_auto_type variable (let spell_auto_type=”tex,doc,mail”) in such a maner
    that all the filetypes for which you want on the fly spell check are listed (“none”, and “all” token are treated)
