Subject: | spell & ispell |
I propose to integrate in the greatly improved setup (thanks!) my ports of Gnu spell and of ispell that have long been available on ftp.franken.de They would be part of the "text" category. One issue to address is that of providing "precompiled" dictionaries (hash files). Raw dictionaries for many languages and for many specialties are available on the Web. The ispell package provides tools to compile them into hash files. I propose to include standard US and GB English hash files in the ispell package. Alternatively (or in addition) we could allow separate packages for hash files in different languages, but this may overwhelm the "text" category and eventually become a problem. Having "subcategories" in setup would then become useful :) OK? Pierre
