Obviously, there is no editor command "SpellCheck" and you don't need ispell, since Vim has an internal spell checker. Just do :h spell and read the manual. > I'm sure I'm missing something important in the help file but if > someone can point me to the right place I'd be grateful. Set your language with :set spelllang=en (or whatever language you want). With :set spell you turn spell checking on and with :set nospell you turn it off again. If the dictionary of your language is not available, just follow the dialogues to download it. Best wishes, Georg Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
