Right, thanks. (I had that one right, once, but must have
dropped it on the floor.)

OK, http://www.kegel.com/spell-fix-dan2.txt is up, with the
following changes:

The above covers errors in three or more source files.

The next logical step was to do the words misspelled in exactly two source files. I did gather a list of them ( http://www.kegel.com/errors2.txt ) but I don't have the energy to make a corrections file for those right now. (FWIW, the procedure is: copy to a new file, run aspell and consult original source, then use 'paste' to join input and output of aspell into a two-column file) - Dan
