FWIW in Fedora we've been shipping "hunspell-mt" since 2008 to provide Maltese spell-checking by running "wordlist2hunspell" over the Maltese word list of http://linux.org.mt/projects/spellcheck/ Have you spoken to Ramon about his wordlist and about formally converting them to hunspell format ? The above list has 500,000+ words in it apparently. Its not strictly-speaking necessary to have the dicts in LibreOffice itself as we support dictionary extensions, there should be a lot of examples around to follow. I'm not sure what our policy is about bundling dictionaries into the install sets itself. I would expect that a compatible licence is required anyway. As a small aside, in your mt_MT.dic the first line is supposed to be the count of lines in the .dic, so "2348 mt_MT.txt" should instead be "2348" (well, should remove the blank line under it and recalculate the number of lines) C. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
