Re: Re: chenxiajian_enchant_dict_hyphenationSuggest ?

Hi, Pradeeban

I have implemented some of it following the advices of Urmas
But I have some problem while reading the source code of enchant so it takes time

1. Some dict provide the function we need
  ispell_dict_suggest: provided by spell
   uspell_dict_suggest: we implemented it
   voikko_dict_suggest: we implemented it
   zemberek_dict_suggest : we implemented it
  
but none of them provide the information about hyphenation, so I have some problem to implement hyphenation using the dict.

there is the related hyphen project at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hunspell/files/Hyphen/ which includes an
example.c for sample hyphenation. This "hyphen" is used by LibreOffice,
OpenOffice.org and Scribus for their hyphenation.

but since it is based on a rather limited algortihm (and there are
issues in OOo/LO) its quality of hyphenation is poor for languages with
long coumpounded words. Especially in case of ambiguous words.


Is there some imformation that can be used for hyphenation using hunspell or aspell?


Best Regard~

Hi Chen,
As you discussed with me during our last chat, have you implemented
this? Can you pls send the enchant specific code that you have
implemented as a patch so that I can have a look?
Can you also pls send a quick update of your progress to the mailing
list upto now? We have been discussing over gtalk and personal mail.
So a higher level update to the group would be great to see how far we
have gone against the timeline that we have initially come up.
We will also need a quick chat to ensure that we are on the track.
Thank you.
Regards,
Pradeeban.
