- README file for pspell (spellchecker) module for PHP
- ----------------------------------------------------
- The latest release of pspell is always available from
- http://aspell.net/
- This module was developed and tested with aspell-.31.1 and pspell-.11.0.2,
- although slightly earlier (and hopefully later) versions of those libraries
- should work as well.
- General notes
- -------------
- Please, note that somewhere around version .27.x (I believe) aspell stopped
- working with the aspell module for php. This is due to the fact that the
- author changed things around a bit, and suggested that people link to pspell
- in the future rather than to aspell. That's exactly what this module is for.
- It has the same basic functionality as aspell (and more features are being
- added). I did not want to modify existing aspell module, because it would
- break things for those who are using older aspell, or result in very ugly code.
- Rather, I wrote a new module - pspell.
- Building pspell on a Unix system
- --------------------------------
- In order to use pspell, you need to have *both* aspell and pspell libraries
- installed, and they have to be compatible with each other. Get the latest
- release of both at the URL given above.
- I expect the libraries to be in /usr/local (that's the default when you
- cofigure pspell and aspell with their 'configure' scripts woth no parameters).
- If that location is different, please specify it in --with-pspell=PATH, where
- PATH is the path you specified for pspell libraries.
- Notes on personalized dictionaries
- ----------------------------------
- It is now possible to have personalized dictionaries with pspell. This is
- achieved by opening a dictionary with pspell_new_personal() rather than
- pspell_new() and specifying the custom dictionary as the first parameter.
- The parameter probably should begin with '/' because otherwise it will
- be relative to $HOME, which is probably set to "/root". This is probably not
- what you want because you need write access for nobody to be able to write
- to a dictionary. Once the dictionary is open, you can use
- pspell_add_to_personal() to add words to the wordlist and finally
- pspell_save_wordlist() to save it.
- Note that at this moment pspell_save_wordlist() will return TRUE, even if
- there was an error. This will be changed once pspell library is fixed.
