Purpose

Summarizes what I always refer to in http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/spell.html.

To spellcheck in Vim type:

:setlocal spell spelllang=en_us

To correct the spelling of a word use:

]s Move to next misspelled word after the cursor.

[s Like "]s" but search backwards
z= For the word under/after the cursor suggest correctly spelled words
