Hi Laurent, I have successfully checked all official MySpell dictionaries with Hunspell.
Only there was a few problems with Myspell's unmunch tool and Myspell 3.0. Unmunch doesn't check the stripping characters, and generates bad words from affix rules with weak or bad conditions. (Affix rules with bad conditions have incompatible condition and stripping characters.) Myspell 3.0 has an obsolote cleanword function and some dictionary words will be wrong before the check: wget ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/en_GB.zip unzip -d en_GB en_GB.zip cd en_GB ~/MySpell-3.0/example en_GB.aff en_GB.dic <(unmunch en_GB.dic en_GB.aff 2>/dev/null) | grep 'incorrect!' "'twixt" is incorrect! "'mongst" is incorrect! "'strewth" is incorrect! "'twas" is incorrect! "'struth" is incorrect! "'neath" is incorrect! For English this is not attractive in OpenOffice.org, because OpenOffice.org's default "en_GB-oed" and "en_US" dictionaries contain the bad "twixt", "mongst" etc. forms without apostrophe. (Perhaps intentionally, because apostrophe is bad, but frequent(?) left quotion mark in English.) But there are several other dictionaries with "lost" words in OOo. I think, Hunspell handles all official OOo spell checking dictionaries correctly. But I will fix unmunch, and retest Hunspell with OOo's dictionaries. I will send the result of the test with the testing shell script. I will make a strict quality control for Hunspell, with similar tests before every Hunspell release. You are right, the right target is not the OOo 2.0.0 for Hunspell. The right target is a beta version before 2.0.0. Unfortunatelly, these items were not displayed in OOo Issuezilla. We need early release for Hunspell (like for any free software). I think, OOo 2.0.1 will be only (but significant) patched version of OOo 2.0.0. Previous versions of Hunspell have been tested in official Hungarian OpenOffice.org (http://hu.openoffice.org) for a long time. Thanks for your comments.
