Dear friends,

I'm one of the three owners to the Finnish L-N Project 
(http://fi.openoffice.org). First some words about background for the speller 
and hyphenation problem in Finnish.

I myself is not a developer, but a heavy user.

1. We have a great speller and hyphenation program - Soikko.

http://www.hut.fi/~pry/soikko/

It is not GPL, but freeware (some kind):

http://www.hut.fi/~pry/soikko/license.txt

It works well with 1.x- and 1.1.x-series. We use Pavel Janik's binaries.

ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/

2. Then there is GPL program for hyphenation only: hyph_fi_FI

http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/hyph_fi_FI.zip

Pavel includes that program in all Finnish OOo-versions.

3. Then there is one GPL program called tmispell. "Tmispell is a front-end 
that emulates Ispell for some spell checking libraries. It was primarily 
written for Soikko (which is written by Pasi Ryh�nen), but will most likely 
work also with other modules that implement the same interface."

http://www.hut.fi/~ptvirtan/programs/tmispell.html

That program is really great. I use it (and Soikko) in KBabel when I translate 
OpenOffice.org 2.0:

4. And at least there is one developer, who has made Soikko to work with 
iWorks:

http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/oarasane/soikko/
http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/oarasane/soikko/Soikko-1.0.1b1.dmg

5. Now the problem: Soikko does not work with 1.9.xx-series. And the author of 
Soikko does not response to my email's. So I have to ask yours help.

I try install (su) it like this for Pavel's binary 1.9.77:

linux:/home/asmok/bin/soikko-oo11-linux-0.2.1 # make install 
OODIR=/opt/openoffice.org1.9.77

make: *** [install] Keskeytetty
linux:/home/asmok/bin/soikko-oo11-linux-0.2.1 #

But I can install it for Pavel's binary 1.1.4:

cp soikko-hy.fi_FI.dic /home/asmok/OpenOffice.org1.1.4/share/dict
Install done
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bin/soikko-oo11-linux-0.2.1>

6. Is there anybody who can wrap Soikko again to work with 1.9..xx-serie?

7. Please understand also that ispell/myspell/aspell does not work in Finnish 
(list of words). Finnish is too complicated language for that. Speller have 
to be binary program like Soikko.
