+    (description
+     "GNU Aspell is a free spell checker designed to eventually replace
+Ispell.  It can either be used as a library or as an independent spell
+checker.  Its main feature is that it does a superior job of suggesting
+possible replacements for a misspelled word than just about any other
+spell checker out there for the English language.  Unlike Ispell, Aspell
+can also easily check documents in UTF-8 without having to use a special
+dictionary.  Aspell will also do its best to respect the current locale
+setting.  Other advantages over Ispell include support for using
+multiple dictionaries at once and intelligently handling personal
+dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once.")
