I use the fte editor to compose Usenet messages. Does anyone know how
I could enable ispell to spell-check messages within fte?

Many thanks.

Have a look on the Linux Applications and Utilities page
(http://www.xnet.com/~blatura/linapps.shtml) under editors.

fte is *excellent* for composing Usenet messages, providing your
newsreader allows you to choose an external editor, as knews does. The
command to start fte is: xfte -mMSG. With this parameter, headers,
article, references, quoted text and your new message are all displayed
in different colours. I used to use fte with OS/2, so was delighted to
find that a Linux version exists. As you've probably gathered, xfte
starts the X version, and fte starts the command line version.

Give it a try!
