Thanks for your kind words. I am 70 years old. Accustomed to C programming and I guess in my hurry I forgot to check what is already available.

Dear Don,
Sorry to bother you.
I implemented the following awk script to handle the problem of concatenating two files where the first is the suffix file and the second is the root file
Code:
FNR==NR {S[$1];next} {printf "%s", $1; for (s in S) printf "/n%s%s", $1, s; printf "\n"}suffix root>root.out

The sample root file contains the following
Code:
walk
talk
seat
pick
laugh

The suffix file contains 3 suffixes in this order: The order is important.
Code:
s
ing
ed

However when the file is generated the order changes and a peculiar sort order is imposed. The output of the file is as under:
Code:
walk
walked
walks
walking
talk
talked
talks
talking

I have only pasted output of the first 2 verbs. As you can see the sort order is changed and is not the same. I have gone through the script and cannot detect which part what modifies the sort order. Is it because the files are in UTF8. I need this format to handle complex scripts like Devanagari or Arabic.
I desperately need the sort order in the suffix file to be retained.
If it is not too much trouble could you please comment the part of the script which modifies the sort order of the output.
Many thanks for your kind help

NAME

       irish - flag format for Irish Ispell dictionaries

DESCRIPTION

       Irish  dictionaries  for Ispell(1) supports 3 prefix and 14 suffix flags.  For a detailed description of how Ispell handles flags and capi-
       talization, see Ispell(4).  This manual page only describes flags usable in dictionaries built using the gaeilge.aff affix file.

       The definitive meanings of the affixes is given in the file /usr/lib/ispell/gaeilge.aff but some of the reasoning and notes are given here.

       Irish has an unusual (unique?) capitalization rule, which needs special handling.  Prefixes for eclipsis are  not  capitalized.,  e.g.	an
       tEarrach.   Ispell(5)  assumes that in an uncapitalized word, the first letter may be capitalized, so Earrach would be incorrectly prefixed
       and capitalized as Tearrach.

       The file irish-prefixes.pl is a perl(1) script to preprocess the wordlist, and add 'by hand' the correct capitalization.  It will turn
	    Earrach/P
       into
	    Earrach
	    tEarrach
       etc. It strips off the E and P flags used for eclipsis and leaves any other flags intact. The word should be Capitalized in  the  the  word
       list; if the uncapitalized version is left in the word list with the flag, it will generate incorrect words, so enter the uncapitalized and
       capitalized versions seperately.

       One 'ordinary' prefix is handled by Ispell, H is used for aspiration of nouns, etc. (Verbs are handled separately).

       Twelve suffixes are used for handling regular verbs. We use three suffixes each per conguation: one listing all suffixes available to  both
       aspirated and unaspirated forms, one listing aspirated forms only, and one for unaspirated forms. So, for the verb mol for example, we have
       in the words list
	    mol/BC
	    mhol/BD
       so the 'B' set of endings apply to both forms, the 'C' set to unaspirated only, and 'D' to aspirated only. This pattern is repeated for all
       four conjugations.

       Irregular verbs just appear in the list in toto.

       Two other suffixes are currently defined, , 'O'	for Caolu (attenuation), and 'Q'for Leathnu (broadening).

BUGS

       The  dictionary	is  very  small,  and  pretty  incomplete.  Any  help would be appreciated.  Please mail additions and corrections to mck-
       instry@computer.org
