Hi all,

Does pine or alpine have an option to support what I will call, for
lack of a better word, incremental spellcheck? That is, when visual
feedback is given immediately after you have spelled a word wrong,
like in modern incarnations of Firefox or Microsoft Word.

If such a feature doesn't exist, I'm going to try to make a patch for
it. Does anyone have any suggestions of where to start exploring the
codebase?

Thanks,
Brennan Vincent

You could use an external editor with a check-as-you-type
spellchecker. Vim can do this.
