Pspell Ispell Module
Version .10
June 11, 2000
Copyright 2000 by Kevin Atkinson <kevinatk@home.com> under the LGPL.

This is the Ispell module for Pspell.  It requires Pspell .11 or
better.

It needs to be installed with the same prefixes as the Pspell library
and requires the "ispell" command to be in your path.  To build
it:

./configure 
make
make install

should work.  If you have Pspell installed in a nonstandard location
you will need to specify the same prefix flags to ./configure that you
specified when building Pspell.

The make-ispell-pwli script will automatically creates the *.pwli
files required by Pspell in the current working directory based on the
name of the installed ispell *.hash files. If you get "Warning: No Rule
for ..." message please send me an email with the name of the hash
file, the language, and anything special about it such as an extra
large size or if it contains words for a particular field.

The ispell word lists are expected to be in the 8-bit encoding common
to the language.

This version is very limited.  Many of the functions are unimplemented
(see the file manager.cc) for more info.

This module uses the SIGPIPE and SIGCHLD signals and assumes that
your program does not.  Using those signals in your program will lead
to unpredictable results.

If you are interested in working on the development of this module you
will need to CVS version of libtool (non multi-language branch) as
well as autoconf and automake.  In order for autoconf to work
correctly you will need to apply the autoconf-select.patch patch.
