The GNOME dictionary's really nice, but it's sometimes handy to

If you're only checking spelling, the "look" command is fast:
$ look string
Just off the top of my head...
$ look teasingly
$ look barnacle
$ look twiddle
Fast, but useless.
Mike, no.... use the first few letters for faster and more useful results:
$ look barnac
barnacle
barnacle's
barnacles
$ look twid
twiddle
twiddled
twiddles
twiddling
$ look barnac
$ look twid
I think it greps & sorts your word list. $ man look for more. It's
just another tool in the linux tool box, not a cure all.
I know about man, and used it before trying look.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
