Pspell The purpose of Pspell ( P ortable Spell Checker Interface Library ) was to provide a generic interface to the system spelling checking libraries . It was , and sometimes still is , used in computer programming such as C , and is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License . Pspell has not been updated since 2001 , but is still available on SourceForge at its project page . It has been replaced by GNU Aspell . For example , the PHP extensions for using Pspell should no longer be used ; instead a recent version of GNU Aspell with a recent version of PHP should be used .
