This page explains how to set up spelling in Irssi on Debian Lenny. It assumes that you have already installed irssi.
# apt-get install aspell-en libaspell-dev aspell libtext-aspell-perl
Don’t forget to change the localisation to match your own locale.
$ mkdir -p ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun
$ cd ~/.irssi/scripts $ wget http://www.mimir.ch/mimir/irssi/files/aspell_complete.pl $ cd autorun $ ln -s ../aspell_complete.pl
Quite irssi and restart it, you should see aspell loading and your locale mentioned.
How the spelling functionality works is that you enter a word and then, before pressing spacebar, you hit the key, whereon the preceding word will be spellchecked.
If you have not installed the correct aspell localisation, then you may find that irssi segfaults.
