I want spell checking to be enabled on vim when editing .txt or .md files. I added 

setlocal spell spelllang=en_au

to .vimrc but that did spell checking for everything.

    This might be doable with an autocmd though I’ve never tried it:

    autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.txt setlocal spell spelllang=en_au
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.md setlocal spell spelllang=en_au
