Suppose you would like to use Ispell to check a word or region that you've
visually highlighted. The following macro will do the job. Just type
Shift-Insert while in visual mode.
vnoremap <S-Insert> <C-C>`<v`>s<Space><Esc>mq:e ispell.tmp<CR>i<C-R>"<Esc>:w<CR>:! xterm -bg ivory -fn 10x20 -e ispell %<CR><CR>:e %<CR><CR>ggVG<Esc>`<v`>s<Esc>:bwipeout!<CR>:!rm ispell.tmp*<CR>`q"_s<C-R>"<Esc>
This is based on Chip Campbell's macro which uses Ispell on the whole file
(in normal mode).
noremap <S-Insert> :w<CR>:! xterm -bg ivory -fn 10x20 -e ispell %<CR><Space>:e %<CR><Space>
