my spelling is so dreadful that i need more help than just spell.

i wrote suggest(1) which tries to guess what i meant to write:

http://www.quintile.net/pkg/suggest.tbz

this runs on vanilla plan9 so may need a little tweak for p9p.

i got hold of an OED cdrom and managed to build dict for that - i can dig out the tools i used/wrote but the cd is copyrighted i am afraid.

I ported some tools of the UNIX V10 writer's workbench. Including spell 
checkers, suggest, diction, gram, ...

As a bonus, it includes some helpers for acme.

Source is at git.sr.ht/~sirjofri/wwb9, iirc, might also be available at 
shithub.
