There are a lot of problems with the spell checker. I have some C code which I will use instead later on. In this case I must know if you are using aspell or ispell. Try:

parray spell::static

Because ispell doesn't support utf-8 and it is a mess to translate encodings back and forth:

if {$static(speller) eq "ispell"} {
#fconfigure $pipe -encoding latin1
} elseif {$static(speller) eq "aspell"} {

# Both we and aspell use utf-8, thus, no translation!
fconfigure $pipe -translation binary
}

spell::static(dict) = en
spell::static(dicts) = en en_CA en_GB en_US nl
spell::static(paths) =

spell::static(w) = -
