------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Aug 8 17:36:10 -0700 2005 ------- I will fix case sensitivity and low information problem of the MAP suggestion mechanism in Hunspell. Background: Kevin Hendricks has implemented a wonderful new method for calculating n-gram suggestions (MAP function). Myspell can suggest the right word for very bad spelling (if there is no other suggestion).

Hence I've implemented an optional off-switch for the default MAP suggestions in Hunspell 1.0.8 (NOMAPSUGS affix parameter). I will weight the MAP suggestions with a fast editing distance like algorithm, and reduce the number of MAP suggestions to 3-5. I think, target 2.0 is O.K. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
