5, How to install aspel on debian
sudo apt-get install aspell
At this point (whether you just installed it or had already installed) try to run it like this:
echo “I mispeled it” | /usr/bin/aspell -a –lang=en_US –encoding=utf-8 -H

If there is no English dictionary installed you should see:

Error: No word lists can be found for the language “en_US”.
-bash: echo: write error: Broken pipe

Let’s fix that by installing the dictionary:

sudo apt-get install aspell-en

Now if you run the command above, you should see aspell looking up “mispeled” in its aspell-en dictionary, identifying that it is spelled wrong, and offering you choices of correct spelling from that dictionary:

echo “I mispeled it” | /usr/bin/aspell -a –lang=en_US –encoding=utf-8 -H
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.60.4) * * * & mispeled 16 21: misspelled, misapplied, misled, dispelled, misfiled, misruled, mislead, spelled, spieled, misplaced, misplayed, misspell, misfield, misspend, simpled, misplay

Ok, so from Linux side, we are ready with Aspell, now let’s begin the integration.

6,  ###########Image magic instalaltion on ubuntu server #############

Install imagemagick support to your debian/ubuntu server. Imagemagick is one of the best library to work with image. recently I have to install it to our production server. here is what i did:

$ apt-get install imagemagick

it downloads the package and all it’s dependences from debian/ubuntu repository, and installed. now i have to install the support of php (as our product running on php)

$ apt-get install php5-imagick

then i restarted the apache server to take effect this new package installation. if your using php4 then the package name should be php4-imagick

$ /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
