Code: Select all
WARNING: Unable to enter Nroff mode: Unknown mode: "nroff".
The solution was simple, though took a little searching to find the it. I got the following files from my Debian installation:
Code: Select all
nroff.amf
nroff-filter.info
nroff-filter.la
nroff-filter.so
/usr/lib/aspell/
folder on my Puppy.
You probably don't have a separate partition containing Debian on your machine, so feel free to download the files from here:

Incidentally, if you find aspell clumsy the way it doesn't like to check single words from the commandline the way ispell does, then you might like this simple little script:
Code: Select all
#! /bin/sh
# spell
while [ 1 ]
do
read -e -p "word: "
echo $REPLY | aspell pipe | tail -n 2
done
