Is there a way to spell-check strings and comments using vim7.0 ?
This is for Python in particular, but doing this in any
language would be useful.

Well, spell-checking some parts of files and not others is possible
*provided* that syntax highlighting is enabled and that the relevant
syntax script defines what should be spell-checked and what shouldn't;
see ":help spell-syntax". The Python syntax script
$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/python.vim apparently defines no spelling or
non-spelling regions, so IIUC for that language spelling is
all-or-nothing. I'm adding the maintainer of that script to the CC list
so if he's interested he may add syntax checking for Python comments
and/or strings. (But are you sure that _all_ your strings are English text?)
Best regards,
Tony.
