About Hunspell
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Hunspell is a spell checker and morphological analyzer library and program
|
|
designed for languages with rich morphology and complex word compounding or
|
|
character encoding. Hunspell interfaces: Ispell-like terminal interface
|
|
using Curses library, Ispell pipe interface, OpenOffice.org UNO module.
|
|
|
|
Hunspell's code base comes from the OpenOffice.org MySpell
|
|
(http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/MySpell-3.zip). See README.MYSPELL,
|
|
AUTHORS.MYSPELL and license.myspell files.
|
|
Hunspell is designed to eventually replace Myspell in OpenOffice.org.
|
|
|
|
Main features of Hunspell spell checker and morphological analyzer:
|
|
|
|
- Unicode support (affix rules work only with the first 65535 Unicode characters)
|
|
|
|
- Morphological analysis (in custom item and arrangement style)
|
|
|
|
- Max. 65535 affix classes and twofold affix stripping (for agglutinative
|
|
languages, like Azeri, Basque, Estonian, Finnish, Hungarian, Turkish, etc.)
|
|
|
|
- Support complex compoundings (for example, Hungarian and German)
|
|
|
|
- Support language specific features (for example, special casing of
|
|
Azeri and Turkish dotted i, or German sharp s)
|
|
|
|
- Handle conditional affixes, circumfixes, fogemorphemes,
|
|
forbidden words, pseudoroots and homonyms.
|
|
|
|
- Free software (LGPL, GPL, MPL tri-license)

Compiling
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
For dictionary development, use the --with-warnings option of configure.
|
|
|
|
For compiling morphological analyser and stemmer code and tools, use the
|
|
--with-experimental option of configure.
|
|
|
|
For interactive user interface of Hunspell executable, use the --with-ui option.
|
|
|
|
The developer packages you need to compile Hunspell's interface:
|
|
|
|
glibc-devel
|
|
|
|
optional developer packages:
|
|
|
|
ncurses (need for --with-ui)
|
|
readline (for fancy input line editing,
|
|
configure parameter: --with-readline)
|
|
locale and gettext (but you can also use the
|
|
--with-included-gettext configure parameter)
|
|
|
|
Hunspell distribution uses new Autoconf (2.59) and Automake (1.9).
|

Testing
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Testing Hunspell (see tests in tests/ subdirectory):
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
or with Valgrind debugger:
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
VALGRIND=[Valgrind_tool] make check
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|

program (hunmorph and hunstem).
|

After compiling and installing (see INSTALL) you can
|
|
run the Hunspell spell checker (compiled with user interface)
|

with a Hunspell or Myspell dictionary:
|
|
|
|
hunspell -d en_UK text.txt
|
|
|
|
or without interface:
|
|
|
|
hunspell -d en_UK -l <text.txt
|
|
|
|
(Dictionaries consists of an affix and dictionary file.)
|
|
|
|
Usage of Hunmorph morphological analyzer:
|
|
|
|
hunmorph en_UK.aff en_UK.dic input_file
|
|
|
|
