Hallo Janis The link works great for a human with a web browser, but not for anything else. I would like to be able to reliably download the Breton spell checker (for example) by just knowing that the language code for it is br. At the moment a human has to browse the web and read and click and do things. I'm looking for a way to automatically discover which dictionaries are available, and hopefully have them at a reliable and predictable URL. OpenOffice.org is the main repository for FOSS spell checkers (or at least the Hunspell ones), yet there is now way for software to help users to easily find them, for example. Since writing my first email, I found this: http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/openoffice/contrib/dictionaries/available.lst but I don't know if that is up to date or maintained in any way. Does anybody know? Also, this is on a mirror. Is there a canonical URL that will automatically redirect to mirrors as appropriate?
