Ispell Enchant Backend
|
|
|
|
Ispell is as old as time. I'll bore you with the history lesson - let it
|
|
suffice to say that there are many forks of Ispell floating around there.
|
|
|
|
This is based off of work done by myself (Dom) and others inside of AbiWord
|
|
(http://www.abisource.com). It is a port of Ispell to C++, some other general
|
|
modifications, plus it's stateful (no static/global data). These are all good
|
|
things.
|
|
|
|
The current version of enchant looks for dictionary files in 2 places:
|
|
|
|
1) Global directory - this is $prefix/share/enchant/ispell/
|
|
2) User-local directory - this is $home/.enchant/ispell/
|
|
|
|
The user's dictionaries, if present, always take precedence over the global
|
|
ones.
|
|
