I just discovered that Mac OS X's Spotlight, the OS's built-in search engine since Tiger, is quite useful for doing quick, voluntary spell-checking when in applications that can't spell-check for you, like the Terminal. Just type Command-Space, and then type in the word you're not sure about. If you've got it right, among the top hits will be a link to its dictionary definition. If you don't see that, adjust the spelling until it pops up.
