I write text in Vim. I use ispell standalone to check the spelling. 
Then I can import that text into Story editor or whatever.
The philosophy of *nix from the beginning has been to use specialized 
tools rather than one great big Swiss army knife of a program. I 
would hate to have Scribus weighed down with on-the-fly spell 
checking a la Microsoft Word etc.
