+The top line in the dialog displays a possibly misspelled word which was found in your
+document. &tdespell; attempts to find an appropriate replacement word. One or
+several may be found. The best guess is shown to the right of <guilabel>Replacement:</guilabel>.
+To accept this replacement, click on <guibutton>Replace</guibutton>. You may also select a word
+from the list of <guilabel>Suggestions</guilabel> and then click <guibutton>Replace</guibutton> to replace the
+misspelled word with the selected word.</para>
+
+<para>To keep your original spelling, click on <guilabel>Ignore</guilabel>.</para>
+
+<para>To stop the spellchecking -- keeping the changes you've already made -- click
+on <guibutton>Stop</guibutton>.</para>
+
+<para>To stop the spellchecking and cancel the changes you've already made, click on
+<guibutton>Cancel</guibutton>.</para>
+
+<para>Clicking on <guibutton>Replace All</guibutton> will initially perform the same function as
+clicking on <guibutton>Replace</guibutton>, but will automatically replace the misspelled word
+with the chosen replacement word, if it appears again (at a later point) in your
+document.</para>
+
+<para>The <guibutton>Ignore All</guibutton> button ignores this and all future occurrences of the
+misspelled word.</para>
+
+<para>Clicking on <guibutton>Add</guibutton> will add the misspelled word to your personal dictionary
+(this is distinct from the original system dictionary, so the additions you make
+will not be seen by other users).</para>

+<para>The most commonly used character encodings are:
+<variablelist>
+<varlistentry>
+<term>US-ASCII</term>
+<listitem>
+<para>This is the character set used for English text.</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term>ISO-8859-1</term>
+<listitem>
+<para>This is used for Western European languages.</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term>UTF-8</term>
+<listitem>
+<para>This is a Unicode encoding that can be used for almost any language, if
+your system has the necessary fonts.</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+</variablelist>
+</para>
+
+<para>You should select the one that matches the character set you are using.
+In some cases, dictionaries will support more than one encoding. A
+dictionary might, for example, accept accented characters when <guilabel>ISO-8859-1</guilabel> is
+selected, but accept email-style character combinations (like <literal>'a</literal> for an
+accented <literal>a</literal>) when <guilabel>US-ASCII</guilabel> is selected. Please see
+your dictionary's distribution for more information.</para>

+backend for &tdespell;. <application>Ispell</application> is more widely available and may
