Dear language friends, I tested the graviax spell cheker on windows (at present it is only for windows).
My impression is, that it is more a frame for xml applications, than a real spell checker. It does not read the words of the language, and it makes very limited checking of a few, not general rules. For example the test text: ------------------ Other really-mangled lines to follow. Lets have have several nicely-triggered rules failing for one sentence (notice the capitalisation problem here). It was not unexpected, that I go home. I have to have a rest. He had to have a rest. I am incredibly whole. It was totally perfect. It was totally nice. ------------------- Creates following output: ---------------------- F:\programme\test\graviax>graviax testme.txt < 1>This is the the test text. This the test text. < 2>Other really-mangled lines to follow. Other really mangled lines to follow. < 3>Lets have have several nicely-triggered rules failing for one sentence (n otice the capitalisation problem here). let's have have several nicely-triggered rules failing for one sentence (notice the capitalisation problem here). let's have have several nicely triggered rules failing for one sentence (notice the capitalisation problem here). let's have several nicely triggered rules failing for one sentence (notice the c apitalisation problem here). < 3> It was not unexpected, that I go home. It was expected, that I go home. < 3> I have to have a rest. I must have a rest. < 3> I am incredibly whole. I am whole. < 3> It was totally perfect. It was perfect. F:\programme\test\graviax> -------------------------------------------- For me this output and therefore the tools capability is far from a very useful one at the moment. I would be interested to hear about graviax from its author or other testers. I am looking for a really fast spell checker, that has the capacity of Daniel Naber's excellent languagetool. Graviax obviously is not the tool of choice at the moment. I also checked Gramadoir, which for me seems to be extremely hard wired to Irish/Gaelic/Celtic and I see no chance to apply that for any other language. This is probably due to its lack of usable documentation, but also the structure of the program might be the reason.
