	In /home/btth, that command finds "no such file." So I told the 
search function to search the whole filesystem; it found nothing, either.

	After a lot of fiddling, I told it to search the whole 
filesystem, including hidden and backup, for anything with a name 
containing "spell"; it found hundreds and hundreds -- but the only two 
executables, for aspell and hunspell, are both in /usr/bin. There are 
also four shell scripts there, and one in /etc/mc

	All this is Geek to me.
