hunspell - spell checker, stemmer and morphological analyzer

SYNOPSYS

hunspell [-1 -a -G -h -H -l -L -m -n -t] [-d dic] [-p ] [files(s)]

DESCRIPTION

Hunspell is fashioned after the Ispell program. The most common usage is "hunspell filename". In this case, hunspell will display each word which does not appear in the dictionary at the top of the screen and allow you to change it. If there are "near misses" in the dictionary (words which differ by only a single letter, a missing or extra letter, a pair of transposed letters, a missing space or hyphen, or a special string pair), then they are also displayed on following lines. As well as "near misses", ispell may display other guesses at ways to make the word from a known root, with each guess preceded by question marks. Finally, the line containing the word and the previous line are printed at the bottom of the screen. If your terminal can display in reverse video, the word itself is highlighted. You have the option of replacing the word completely, or choosing one of the suggested words. Commands are single characters as follows (case is ignored):
R
Replace the misspelled word completely.
Space
Accept the word this time only.
A
Accept the word for the rest of this hunspell session.
I
Accept the word, capitalized as it is in the file, and update private dictionary.
U
Accept the word, and add an uncapitalized (actually, all lower-case) version to the private dictionary.
0-n
Replace with one of the suggested words.
L
Look up words in system dictionary (controlled by the WORDS compilation option).
X
Write the rest of this file, ignoring misspellings, and start next file.
Q
Exit immediately and leave the file unchanged.
!
Shell escape (not implemented).
^L
Redraw screen.
^Z
Suspend ispell.
?
Give help screen.

OPTIONS

-t
The input file is in TeX or LaTeX format.
-n
The input file is in nroff/troff format.
-H
The input file is in SGML/HTML format.

The -l or "list" option to hunspell is used to produce a list of misspelled words from the standard input.

The -a option is intended to be used from other programs through a pipe. In this mode, hunspell prints a one-line version identification message, and then begins reading lines of input. For each input line, a single line is written to the standard output for each word checked for spelling on the line. If the word was found in the main dictionary, or your personal dictionary, then the line contains only a '*'. If the word was found through affix removal, then the line contains a '+', a space, and the root word. If the word was found through compound formation (concatenation of two words, then the line contains only a '-'.

If the word is not in the dictionary, but there are near misses, then the line contains an '&', a space, the misspelled word, a space, the number of near misses, the number of characters between the beginning of the line and the beginning of the misspelled word, a colon, another space, and a list of the near misses separated by commas and spaces. Following the near misses (and identified only by the count of near misses), if the word could be formed by adding (illegal) affixes to a known root, is a list of suggested derivations, again separated by commas and spaces.

Also, each near miss or guess is capitalized the same as the input word unless such capitalization is illegal; in the latter case each near miss is capitalized correctly according to the dictionary.

Finally, if the word does not appear in the dictionary, and there are no near misses, then the line contains a '#', a space, the misspelled word, a space, and the character offset from the beginning of the line. Each sentence of text input is terminated with an additional blank line, indicating that hunspell has completed processing the input line.

These output lines can be summarized as follows:

OK:
*
Root:
+ <root>
Compound:
-
Miss:
& <original> <count> <offset>: <miss>, <miss>, ..., <guess>, ...
Guess:
? <original> 0 <offset>: <guess>, <guess>, ...
None:
# <original> <offset>

For example, a dummy dictionary containing the words "fray", "Frey", "fry", and "refried" might produce the following response to the command "echo 'frqy refries | hunspell -a -m -d ./test.hash":

(#) Hunspell 0.4.1 (beta), 2005-05-26
& frqy 3 0: fray, Frey, fry
& refries 1 5: refried, re+fry-y+ies

This mode is also suitable for interactive use when you want to figure out the spelling of a single word.

When in the -a mode, hunspell will also accept lines of single words prefixed with any of '*', '&', '@', '+', '-', '~', '#', '!', '%', '`', or '^'. A line starting with '*' tells hunspell to insert the word into the user's dictionary (similar to the I command). A line starting with '&' tells hunspell to insert an all-lowercase version of the word into the user's dictionary (similar to the U command). A line starting with '@' causes hunspell to accept this word in the future (similar to the A command). A line starting with '+', followed immediately by tex or nroff will cause hunspell to parse future input according the syntax of that formatter. A line consisting solely of a '+' will place hunspell in TeX/LaTeX mode (similar to the -t option) and '-' returns hunspell to nroff/troff mode (but these commands are obsolete). However, the string character type is not changed; the '~' command must be used to do this. A line starting with '~' causes hunspell to set internal parameters (in particular, the default string character type) based on the filename given in the rest of the line. (A file suffix is sufficient, but the period must be included. Instead of a file name or suffix, a unique name, as listed in the language affix file, may be specified.) However, the formatter parsing is not changed; the '+' command must be used to change the formatter. A line prefixed with '#' will cause the personal dictionary to be saved. A line prefixed with '!' will turn on terse mode (see below), and a line prefixed with '%' will return hunspell to normal (non-terse) mode. A line prefixed with '`' will turn on verbose-correction mode (see below); this mode can only be disabled by turning on terse mode with '%'.

Any input following the prefix characters '+', '-', '#', '!', '%', or '`' is ignored, as is any input following the filename on a '~' line. To allow spell-checking of lines beginning with these characters, a line starting with '^' has that character removed before it is passed to the spell-checking code. It is recommended that programmatic interfaces prefix every data line with an uparrow to protect themselves against future changes in hunspell.

To summarize these:

*
Add to personal dictionary
@
Accept word, but leave out of dictionary
#
Save current personal dictionary
~
Set parameters based on filename
+
Enter TeX mode
-
Exit TeX mode
!
Enter terse mode
%
Exit terse mode
`
Enter verbose-correction mode
^
Spell-check rest of line

In terse mode, hunspell will not print lines beginning with '*', '+', or '-', all of which indicate correct words. This significantly improves running speed when the driving program is going to ignore correct words anyway.

In verbose-correction mode, hunspell includes the original word immediately after the indicator character in output lines beginning with '*', '+', and '-', which simplifies interaction for some programs.
