NAME
Enchant - a spellchecker SYNOPSIS
enchant [-a] [-l] [-L] [-v] DESCRIPTION
Enchant is an ispell-compatible spellchecker. OPTIONS -a List alternatives. -l List only the misspellings. -L Include the line number in the output. -v Prints the program's version. ENCHANT ORDERING FILE
Enchant has a global and a per-user ordering file named enchant.ordering. It lets the user specify which spelling backend to use for indi- vidual languages in the case when you care which backend gets used. The global file is located in $(datadir)/enchant and the per-user file is located in ~/.enchant. The per-user file takes precedence, if found. The ordering file takes the form language_tag:<comma-separated list of spelling backends>. I am currently aware of the following backends: aspell, myspell, ispell, uspell, hspell, voikko, and zemberek. '*' is used to mean "use this ordering for all languages, unless instructed otherwise." For example: *:aspell,myspell,ispell en:aspell,myspell,ispell en_UK:myspell,aspell,ispell fr:myspell,ispell:aspell DIRECTORIES IMPORTANT TO ENCHANT
Unless configured otherwise, Enchant's Myspell, Ispell, and Uspell backends will look for dictionaries in directories specific to Enchant, and will not use your system-wide installed dictionaries. This is for pragmatic reasons since many distributions install these dictionaries into different locations. Like the enchant.ordering file described above, Enchant looks in the global directory for these dictionaries and a per-user directory. The per-user directory takes precedence if it is found. Enchant looks for Myspell dictionaries in $(datadir)/enchant/myspell and ~/.enchant/myspell. Enchant looks for Ispell dictionaries in $(datadir)/enchant/ispell and ~/.enchant/ispell. Enchant looks for Uspell dictionaries in $(datadir)/enchant/uspell and ~/.enchant/uspell. Packagers and users may wish to make symbolic links to the system-wide dictionary directories. Or, preferably, use the --with-myspell-dir, --with-ispell-dir, and --with-uspell-dir 'configure' arguments. MORE INFORMATION

NAME
installdeb-aspell - debhelper-like utility for maintainers of aspell dictionary Debian packages SYNOPSIS
installdeb-aspell [debhelper options] DESCRIPTION
installdeb-aspell is a debhelper like program that is responsible for installing appropriate debhelper snippets in an aspell dictionary package, according to the Debian Spell Dictionaries and Tools Policy. For more details, see /usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev/dsdt-policy.txt.gz The actions executed by installdeb-aspell are the following: o Maintainer Scripts installdeb-aspell installs the necessary scraps of code in the postinst and postrm scripts. o Language info file installdeb-aspell also checks a file containing aspell dictionary information, called debian/info-aspell or debian/package.info-aspell. If this file is successfully parsed, it is installed in the /var/lib/dictionaries-common/aspell directory. o Debconf files As opposed to installdeb-ispell and installdeb-wordlist, neither installdeb-aspell nor installdeb-hunspell do anything related to debconf files, since both aspell and hunspell rely on the environment variable "LANG" for default dictionary selection instead of using symlinks set after a debconf question on dictionary installation. For that reason if you need to add debconf stuff with debhelper to your aspell or hunspell dictionary package do it in the usual way and call dh_installdebconf(1) as for any other package. o Extra installdeb-aspell options in Language info file For benefit of aspell dictionaries using aspell-autobuildhash, installdeb-aspell script will look for 'auto-compat' and 'auto-contents' fields in $lang.info-aspell, containing base name(s) of your compat and, if needed, contents file(s). If 'auto-compat' entry is found two debhelper snippets are added, one to create/reset compatfile(s) in postinst and the other to remove files in a removal list (initially containing compat files) from postrm. If 'auto-contents' entry is found, contents file at debian/ will be parsed and its contents added to the removal list, otherwise a hash with the same basename of the compatfile is expected and added to the removal list. Unless previous stuff exists, /usr/lib/aspell}/$dict.rws -> /var/lib/aspell/$dict.rws symlinks will also be automatically created. If you use a contents file and enable it in 'auto-contents' you usually will need only the same base name enabled in 'auto-compat'. OPTIONS
The usual dephelper(1) options are accepted. NOTES
This program is not part of debhelper, although it is intended to be used in aspell dictionary packages using debhelper in its building. SEE ALSO
debhelper(1) This program is part of the dictionaries-common-dev package. It is intended to be used by maintainers of aspell dictionary packages for Debian. See the documentation under /usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev. AUTHORS
