This is a port of Internacional Ispell 3.3.01 to MSDOS/DJGPP.
DJGPP specific changes.
=======================
The original source has already DJGPP specific code included so the port has
been produced by compiling the source code out-of-the.box.
The following to DJGPP specific changes has been done:
1) The configuration step has been modified in such a way that it will
include in the building process the distributed cvs version of popen.c.
2) The new directory named ~/.ispell_logs will log the users spelling
corrections, if ispell is used in interactive mode. Because the dir name
is not a valid 8.3 name pathconf() will be used to decide at run time
if the original name or a DOS conform name (_ispell_logs) will be used
depending on if LFN is available or not.
All the changes done to the original distribution are documented in the diffs
file and located together with all the files needed to configure and compile
the sources in the /pc directory. As has been told before, the binary
distrinution has been produced by compiling the sources out-of-the-box.
This implies that the binary distribution contains only the default
dictionaries, these are two versions of the american dictionary. If some one
needs dictionaries for other languages, he will need to download the source
distribution and generate them. For this purpose, please read the files:
README.dos and pc/REAFME very carefully.
For futher information about ispell changes read the files Changes.
