- This archive contains an Installer.app package for GNU ispell-3.1.20.
-
- Ispell is a fast screen-oriented spelling checker that shows you
- your errors in the context of the original file, and suggests possible
- corrections when it can figure them out. Compared to UNIX spell, it
- is faster and much easier to use. Ispell can also handle languages
- other than English.
-
- If installed in other than /usr/gnu, you may need to work some magic for
- ispell to find its dictionaries (Define the environment variable
- ISPELL_DICTIONARY to point to the appropriate directory containing
- the ispell.dict file (in binary format, be careful about endianess!).
- Check the ispell documentation for details.
- Note that in order to deliver this as a FAT binary, I needed to include two
- hashed dictionaries, one for each byte-order type (big/little endian). Be
- careful about this when attempting to add or move dictionaries.
