* What would it take to get someone to port ispell with support for more * languages (besides French)? Specifically, I would like to see Spanish * and British and "American" support working together in my ispell. * Ideally, a menu (similar to Ghostscript's printer driver selection * menu) listing all available languages would be excellent. * * I tried to hack the ispell tarball and the port myself, but I couldn't * get it to work. Are you sure you can get them work "together"? Say, I wrote chambre, is my French/English ispell going to correct me? I think the better thing to do is to have ispell install different binaries that use different names. (Or install one binary with symlinks for different names, and have it check argv[0] to pick the appropriate dictionary.) Satoshi
