Explanation:
aspell is a utility that can function as an ispell -a replacement, as an independent spell checker, as
a test utility to test out Aspell features, and as a utility for managing dictionaries.
Syntax:
aspell [options]
Some important options used with aspell are as follows:The following options may be used with the aspell command to control which dictionaries to use
and how they behave:Answer option A is incorrect. The tee command is used to split the output of a program so that it
can be seen on the display and also be saved in a file. It can also be used to capture intermediate
output before the data is altered by another command or program. The tee command reads
standard input, then writes its content to standard output, and simultaneously copies it into the
specified file(s) or variables.
The syntax of the tee command is as follows: tee [-a] [-i] [File] where, the -a option appends the
output to the end of File instead of writing over it and the -i option is used to ignore interrupts.
Answer option B is incorrect. The concatenate (cat) command is used to display or print the
contents of a file.
Syntax:
cat filename
For example, the following command will display the contents of the /var/log/dmesg file:
cat /var/log/dmesg
Note: The more command is used in conjunction with the cat command to prevent scrolling of the
screen while displaying the contents of a file.
Answer option D is incorrect. There is no such utility as dict in Linux.
