Hmm, strange, I just had it mark my whole first like red, I think it
took an enter at the end of the line to get everything started though.
Does it check the rest of the lines for you?  I know spell checking is
disabled for too early versions of Aspell, due to some change in the
interface I think.

I have experienced some saving related issues I think, but I'm not sure.
 Unfortunately I have very little understanding on what is going on in
the code, basically I don't know tcl/tk at all.  I was just lucky to
find a solution to my problem that seemed to work for me.

Yep, sorry about that, seems I had a nonstandard tab-width setting.  Too
bad not all projects can decide on the same tab width. :(  Will resend
if there are no other comments to this, and at the same time fix the
spelling in the commit message...
