Perl interface to the GNU Aspell library

This module provides a Perl interface to the GNU Aspell library. This module is to meet the need of looking up many words, one at a time, in a single session, such as spell-checking a document in memory. The GNU C interface is described at: <a href="http://aspell.net/man-html/Through-the-C-API.html#Through-the-C-API">http://aspell.net/man-html/Through-the-C-API.html#Through-the-C-API</a> It's worth looking over the way config and speller (manager) objects are created when using the Aspell C API as some of that is hidden in the Text::Aspell module. For example, with Text::Aspell you do not have to explicitly create a speller object. The speller (manager) object is created automatically the first time you call suggest() or check(). Note also that once the speller object is created some (all?) config options cannot be changed. For example, setting configuration options such as "lang" are what determine what dictionary Aspell will use. Once the speller object is created that dictionary will be used. I.e. setting "lang" after the speller object is created will have no effect.
