Short: Very powerful spell checking (source) Author: eburghar@online.worldnet.fr Uploader: eburghar online worldnet fr Type: text/misc Version: 3.1.18p4 Architecture: generic PRODUCT NAME International Ispell Version 3.1.18 Amiga patch level 4 (V3.1.18p4) BRIEF DESCRIPTION Very powerful spell checking in multiple languages. In this archive is only included an English/American dictionary but Ispell support many languages; There is available dictionaries for: dansk, deutsch, espanol, francais, nederlands, norsk, svenska, russian and italian. And probably some more if you look the right places. Consult the "languages/Where" file in the source archive for FTP sites. This Ispell is not a complete Amiga port as is the 3.3ljr Ispell, therefore it may load the system a bit more. Ispell 3.1.18 is *newer* than Ispell 3.3ljr! AUTHOR Name: Jesper Skov Address: (Check Amiga.ReadMe for snail address) EMail: jskov@iesd.auc.dk NEW FEATURES Compared with the previous Amiga Ispell release (Ispell 3.3ljr) o It is now possible to ACCEPT a word via the ARexxPort. Compared with patch level 2 o Better support of "high ASCII code" letters. o A correct HOME environment variable is not needed anymore. o Added documentation on dictionary building. Compared with patch level 3 o Fix a bug with ARexx interface when using the french dictionary but it certainly happen with other languages - minor fix for english users, major fix for french users. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS I think a Kickstart V37+ is required, but I'm not sure. Ispell needs the presence of ixemul.library version 41+. When running in server mode the entire dictionary is loaded to RAM. I suggest at least 1MB - 1.5MB free RAM for Ispell and ixemul.library. This obviously depends on the size of the used dictionary. HardDisk is a must! (or a patient soul :) HOST NAME ftp.luth.se (All AmiNet sites) DIRECTORY util/gnu FILENAME Ispell31p4src.lha PRICE/DISTRIBUTABILITY Ispell is... uh, the exact legal description is in the bottom of this text. The bottom line is: "You can use it for free!"
