For those of you are interested here is a _tentative_ Roadmap of where I plan on taking Aspell/Pspell this summer. Aspell .32 (End of June): - Support for ignoring accents when coming up with suggestions - Support for optional doing without soundslike data which cuts the word list size by over 50% - Rework the compiled word list creation process so that it uses far less memory. - Add support for more intelligent composite words formation ? Add support for using the new Double Metaphone Algorithm by both updated the english_phonet.dat file AND adding support for scoring on two different Metaphone. Aspell .33 (End of July) - Merge HEAD branch into MAIN branch and resolving pending issues. This will add full filter support including being able to spell check unicode. - Possible due away with the Aspell utility for all but maintenance tasks. Spell checking would be done with the new Pspell utility. Pspell .12 (End of July) - Add support for spell checking full documents optionally passing the text through a serious of filters which will so things such as ignore url's, HTML, TeX, etc... - Add a new Pspell utility which will work function as an "a|ispell -a" replacement as well as a stand alone utility to check documents. Pspell 1.0 beta (End of August) - Resolve remaining design issues. Aspell .34 (??) - Affix compression If you are interested in seeing one of this features at an earlier state the best thing you can due is contribute code. If you want to work with the CVS version of Aspell please let me know first as there are several things to watch out for. --- Kevin Atkinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://metalab.unc.edu/kevina/ _______________________________________________ aspell-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/aspell-user
