Er, what script loop, and what "4000 odd keystrokes [per] error", if one
may be so bold? If the list of good words is read into an associative
array (lets call it "list") in the BEGIN action, and membership tested
with an "if (word in list) ..." in an unconditional action handling the
input stream, _and_ the unrecognised words (sans @@) are printed to
another file, then it is only necessary to open that file in vim, and
for each word (one per line), hit ":.w >> /path/goodfile" for each word
which we accept as good. With that aliased to a key of choice, only one
keystroke is required to qualify each word. Both awk and vim are run
once per session, handling thousands of words each time, if you have
them. Four thousand keystrokes would handle 4000 errors.

If these are e.g. ordinary English words, is it acceptable to read in
e.g. /usr/share/dict/british-english into "list", to start with 98,000
or more good words in the BEGIN action, before reading in your list of
special words,
