Thanks Kevin.  Where do I find an appropriate dictionary?
I appreciate your help.

I just checked with my host administrator, and they won't install Aspell

Can I install Aspell in my domain area on that host?  If so, how do I go 
about that?  I've got the compilers necessary to compile Aspell.
    

Just use the "--prefix=<dir>" configure option to set the base directory 
to something in your home directory.  Than add "<prefix>/bin' to your 
PATH.  Than install a dictionary.  When you run "./configure" on the 
dictionary package make sure that the right Aspell is detected.
