(a) Run-together words: It seems that for a long mispelled word that is close to two smaller words, aspell first suggests combinations of shorter words. For example, in English, "ratdog" turns up "rat dog" and "rat-dog" as the first two suggestions. I had thought that this was because of run-together words, but using "run-together false" in the .dat file does not seem to make a difference. I understand why one would want to have run-together words in the suggestion, but is there any way I could eliminate them (for example, one does not hyphenate words in Hindi), or use a weighting to reduce their importance, so that they appear later in the list of suggestions.
See, sug-split-char, if it is set to the empty list than it won't try to split the words.
(b) Affix rules: Though affix rules seem to be working properly for Hindi, is there any way that I could have aspell accept, e.g., "word + suffix" as correct, when only "word" is in the dictionary, but there is an affix rule for "word + suffix"? Alternatively, would it be possible for "word + suffix" to appear as the first suggestion in such a case? The reason that this would be useful is that Hindi makes a lot of use of suffices, and without these being marked correct, an auto-spellchecked document gets cluttered with spurious underlinings.
The "guess" option will sort-of do what you want. You should really add the appropriate flags to the base forms. _______________________________________________ Aspell-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-devel
