# speller command

The speller command enables or disables
the spelling checker for the current user/port only, or displays the
status of the speller if no options are provided.

The automatic spelling checker is used with the Update
processor.

## Syntax

```
speller {(options)}
```

## Parameter(s)

| options | f | Toggles spelling checker off. |
| --- | --- | --- |
| n | Toggles spelling checker on. | |
| s | Suppresses output of the status message. | |
CAUTION: The words file
is shipped *empty* from the factory. Until a words file is obtained, the spelling checker should be disabled, since *every* word forces a lookup.
