Pspell Ispell Module
Version .12
May 29, 2001
Copyright 2001 by Kevin Atkinson <kevina@users.sourceforge.net> under the LGPL.

This is the Ispell module for Pspell.  It requires Pspell .12 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 --disable-static
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 --disable-static will avoid making the
static libraries which are generally useless as this library is meant to be
loaded as a module.  If for some reason you need to create the static
libraries simply leave the --disable-static when configuring.

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 (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.

ChangeLog:

.10.2 to .12 (May 29, 2001)
    Updated for Pspell .12 API
    Used old fashion header files for better compatibility with older
    compilers
    Switched to the multi-language branch of Libtool.
    Added the configure option AM_MAINTAINER_MODE to avoid enabling rules
    which often causes generated build files to be rebuild with the wrong
    version of Libtool by default. 

.10.1 to .10.2 (August 3, 2000)
    Added support for personal option

.10 to .10.1 (June 20, 2000):
    Renamed *-medical-ispell.pwli to *-ispell.pwli as I mistook the "med" 
    and "med+" suffix to mean medical.
    The install process will remove the incorrect files.
    
.10 (June 11, 2000):
    Initial release.
