Hi John,
I would like to suggest to change a bit enchant build module - to build
native Apple spellchecker instead of ispell and myspell it is currently
buiding. I do not have any objections to continue to build ispell or
myspell, however, in order to enable its functionality one has to add
external dictionaries somehow (I never tried), while applespell works out
of the box and uses native Apple spellchecker.
Gedit is already doing this, and its enchant module is:
<autotools id="enchant" autogenargs="--disable-myspell --disable-ispell">
<branch module="1.6.0/enchant-1.6.0.tar.gz" version="1.6.0"
repo="abisource/enchant">
<patch file="enchant/enchant-gsize.patch" strip="1"/>
<patch file="enchant/enchant-applespell.patch" strip="1"/>
<patch file="enchant/enchant-relocatable.patch" strip="1"/>
</branch>
<dependencies>
<dep package="glib"/>
</dependencies>
</autotools>
There is one extra patch for applespell, and enchant-relocatable.patch is a
bit different to what is available on gtk-osx repository. I have confirmed,
gedit version works!
