Hi Eleonora, thanks for the the explanation on hunspell. i really appreciate it.But the problem i have now is that hunspell programe suggests only the word in the testing dictionary, it did not generate word from affix rule for the language i ' m building the dictionary for. I tested it with English dictionary and affix files, it worked very well.Below are testing affix and dictionary files.
TESTING AFFIX RULE SET ISO8859-1 TRY aeiouAEIOU PFX A Y 1 PFX A 0 wi PFX B Y 1 PFX B 0 li SFX R N 1 SFX R 0 ra SFX Z N 1 SFX Z 0 re PFX D N 1 PFX D 0 e PFX I N 1 PFX I 0 i TESTING DICT 6 wa/ARDI we/AZDI wi/AI wo/ABI wu/AZID lo/BRZI TESTING WORD wa we wi wo wu ewe ewa dwe iwu iwo after i executing this command "example yor_NIGG.aff yor_NIGG.dic my_file.txt" it gives " " is not correct suggesting we like this for word in dictionary file only. --- On Thu, 8/7/08, ge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: ge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [lingu-dev] ASSISTANCE IN USING HUNSPELL To: dev@lingucomponent.openoffice.org Date: Thursday, August 7, 2008, 11:31 AM Hi, Some hints: 1. Check if hunspell.so was built. 2. check if example or example.exe was built. 3. Check if you have en_US.aff and en_US.dic in the tree. if not: download them from OpenOffice 4. Run example or example.exe with proper arguments example /full_path/en_US.aff /full_path/en_US.dic your_file.txt where your_file.txt is a text file for example: tree house treei example should indicate, that treei is bad, rest good. 5. Now you can start to develop yoruba.aff and yoruba.dic and do tests.
