You can also find dictionaries for a lot of -languages there. - -You also need the version of the look program in <a -href="ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/">util-linux-2.9</a>. -Older versions have a bug which shows up when searching dictionaries -with non-English characters. Ispell uses look to complete words -(ispell-complete-word). If you don't plan to have a Norwegian words -file for lookup, you don't need to worry about the Look program. - -<li><b>Emacs</b><br> - -If you want to use ispell from Emacs, i recommend upgrading to the -latest version of <A -HREF="ftp://kdstevens.com/pub/stevens/ispell.el.gz"> ispell.el</A>. -This version supports Norwegian, and it has become clean to include -local dictionary definitions. It is almost like the version included -in in Emacs-20.4. There is also an add-on to ispell.el, -<A HREF="http://kaolin.unice.fr/~serrano/emacs/flyspell"> -flyspell.el</A>, written by <A href="http://kaolin.unice.fr/~serrano"> -Manuel Serrano</A> available, offering better `on-the-fly' -spell-checking. An old version is included in emacs-20.3, but you -would like to have the new version with important speed improvements. - -<li><b>(La)TeX</b><br> - -If you want to make your own hyphenation patterns for TeX (you -probably don't), you need a version of the patgen program with greater -capacities than standard versions, e.g. you have to compile patgen -with a different patgen.ch. See the patterns/Makefile for more -information. Almost every TeX distribution contains the patgen -program. I recommend <a -href="ftp://ftp.rrzn.uni-hannover.de/pub/local/misc/teTeX-beta/">teTeX</a>. -If you want both kinds of hyphenation in the same TeX format, you -probably need to recompile TeX due to capacity problems. Again, this -is easy with teTeX. - -</ul> - - -<h3>Distribution</h3> - -<p>The distribution <a -href="http://www.uio.no/~runekl/ispell-norsk-2.0.tar.gz">ispell-norsk-2.0.tar.gz</a> -(2204k) is free in the GPL sense and contains these files: - -<ul> -<li><b><a href="README">README</a></b><br> -How to make ispell and emacs work with these dictionaries. - -<li><b>words.norsk.sq</b><br> This file contains the Norwegian words and -the indication of their commonness compressed with the sq program. - -<li><b>norsk.aff.in</b><br> A template for the affix file for the -Norwegian language. This file is made for ispell with 64 maskbits -that understands HTML. Most pre-made versions of ispell supports only -32 maskbits and don't understand HTML. Use the patch and recompile -ispell, or delete the html-related stuff. - -<li><b>Ispell-3.1.20.no.patch</b><br>A patch for ispell-3.1 that adds -the amsmath and breqn environments to the skip-list and fixes a bug in -buildhash. It also makes ispell html-aware, and tries to fix `the -backslash bug'. In addition it makes ispell suggest "- as a compound -word mark when seeing an unknown compound word, but only in TeX mode -if the dictionary is named norsk. This is an ugly hack that works for -me. It also implement the -r flag which is like the -a flag, but the -suggestions are printed even if the word is found in the dictionary. - -<li><b>norsk.single.tex</b><br>This is a set of hyphenation patterns -for TeX that works well on non-compound words. It is used when making -the new hyphenation patterns for TeX. This file is basically made -from nohyph3.tex, a hyphenation file I released May 1998. But a lot of -errors have been removed by comparing its action on the single words -by the action of <a -href="ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/language/hyphenation/nohyph.tex">nohyph.tex</a> -(standard in teTeX), <a -href="ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/language/hyphenation/nohyph2.tex">nohyph2.tex</a>, -and the unreleased hyphenation patterns by Simen Gaure used at the <a -href="http://www.math.uio.no/index.html">Department of -Mathematics</a>, <a href="http://www.uio.no/index.html">University of -Oslo</a>. I have tried to follow the rules given in <a -href="ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/language/hyphenation/nohyph.tex">nohyph.tex</a>, -at least where I find it reasonable. Bear in mind that there is no -authoritative source for hyphenation in Norwegian. Please get in -touch if you want to help improving the Norwegian hyphenation -patterns. - -<li><b><a href="norsk.cfg">norsk.cfg</a></b><br> An -addition to Babel-3.6 for LaTeX that makes the character " active and -offers you many `different' hyphen signs. You can say o"ppussing in -LaTeX to get correct hyphenation opp-pussing! This functionality will -appear in Babel-3.7 for Norwegian. Danish and Swedish have had it for -several years. - -<li><b><a href="inorsk-compwordsmaybe">inorsk-compwordsmaybe</a></b><br> -Search for words in a file or from standard input that maybe should be -written in one word. Like `matematikk lærer' etc. - -<li><b><a href="inorsk-hyphenmaybe">inorsk-hyphenmaybe</a></b><br> -Search for words in a file from from standard input that the Norwegian -hyphenation patterns from this distribution might not hyphenate -properly. Incorrect hyphenation of words not printed is considered to -be a bug in the patterns. There is only a finite number of them. - -<li><b>Makefile</b><br> This file contains rules for making -dictionaries for ispell and lists of the most common words for dumb -word processors. There is also a Makefile in the patterns directory -for making hyphenation patterns. - -<li><b><a href="nohyphbc.tex">nohyphbc.tex</a></b>, <b><a -href="nohyphb.tex">nohyphb.tex</a></b><br> This -is the hyphenation patterns for TeX. The file nohyphbc.tex hyphenates -only at compound points. The nohyphb.tex hyphenates each component of -a word too, but avoiding to hyphenate 'near' compound points. I think -'bar-nepsykologen' looks really bad. Too bad TeX doesn't support -multi-level hyphenation yet.<br> - - -The naming of the files follow the paradigm in Babel; if a replacement -for a file foo.bar is offered, it is named foob.bar, where the b -stands for big. - -These new patterns easily outpreforms those available before, mostly -because of better compound word hyphenation. For reference I have -made lists of about 2000 compound word errors made by previous -patterns: <a href="err.nohyph">err.nokyph</a> and <a href="err.nohyph2"> -err.nokyph2</a>. +<h1><span style="font-weight: bold;">Spell-norwegian</span></h1> +<a href="#Information_"><br> +Information</a><br> +<a href="#Download">Download</a><br> +<a href="index_old.html">Oldpage</a><br> +<a href="links.html">Links</a><br> +<a href="developer.html">Developer page</a><br> +<a href="#Contact">Contact</a><br> <br> - -The size of the patterns can be argued over. The patterns are copied -into each format file, thus occupying some disk space. They also -limit the number of languages one can load hyphenation patterns for on -most TeX systems. But size considerations has become less important -recent years, so I prefer to focus on getting things right, not small. -It is also possible to recompile teTeX such that there is more room -for hyphenation patterns, but the patterns take up more memory then. -There is surely a lot of unnessesary structure within the hyphenation -patterns , but it is very time-consuming to remove. The file -patterns/Makefile can be configured, such that one can make smaller -sets of patterns, taking only the most common words into -concideration. Everyone is invited to play. - -<li><b>COPYING</b><br> The GNU general public license. - -</ul> - -<p> - - -<h3>Changes</h3> - -<p>There has been a lot of changes since version 1.1a. The quality has -improved a lot, and the structure of the distribution is completely -new. Therefore i choose not to make the previous versions available -from this site. - -<p>Here is a rough summary of the changes: - -<ul> - -<li>New distribution format - -<li>Support for Nynorsk - -<li>Commonness indicator for each word from Bokmål - -<li>Words are hyphenated at their compound points - -<li>A lot of common words added, especially compound words - -<li>Makefile completly rewritten. It is possible to configure the -size of the dictionary for ispell without beaking the munching. - -<li>Makefile to make hyphenation patterns for TeX added - -<li>The pregenerated TeX patterns are included in the distribution. - -<li>Controlled compoundwords support added. This includes affix file -updates. - -<li>Some uncommon and misspelled words removed - -<li>Affix file updated for html. This will only work if you use the patch. - -</ul> - -<h3>Todo list</h3> - +<h2><a name="Information"></a></h2> +<h2>Information</h2> +This will be the new information site for the bokmål and nynorsk +spellchecker data for aspell, ispell and myspell.<br> +This page will continue the good work done by Rune Kleveland.<br> +<br> +The plan is as follows:<br> <ul> - -<li>Remove/mark uncommon words that are close to common words. If you -type 're' you probably meant 'er', even if 're' is a valid word. - -<li>There are too many words with commonness 0. Split this group in -two. - -<li>Some words in the basic category belongs in special categories. -When making a small dictionary with all words from mathematics, many -such words are missing, since they are in the basic category. They -should be moved. - -<li>Make ispell sort the suggested replacements for misspelled words -by commonness of the suggested words. One (easy) way to do this is to -make an external file containing the most common words, and make -ispell look into that file each time it has more than one suggestion. -Or the file could be read into memory. (I don't think frequency -information is representable within the root/affix structure, since -one flag can represent multiple words.) This would slow ispell down a -little bit, but only when it makes suggestions. If you would like to -help with this, please get in touch. - + <li>Make release of aspell, myspell and ispell packages.</li> + <li>Make all the distributions use the same source</li> + <li>Improve the Nynorsk wordlist to contain more words, here we hope +to get help from the An Gramadoir project.</li> </ul> - -<p>Comments, suggestions and bug-reports to <a -href="mailto:runekl@opoint.com">runekl@opoint.com</a>. If you have -or want to make a correct dictionary from some field of knowledge, i -would like to include it in the next release. See the <a -href="README">README</a> file for some -suggestions about how to get started.
