ENCHANT(1) Enchant Mini Help File ENCHANT(1) NAME Enchant - a spellchecker SYNOPSIS enchant [-a] [-l] [-L] [-v] DESCRIPTION Enchant is an ispell-compatible spellchecker. OPTIONS -a List alternatives. -l List only the misspellings. -L Include the line number in the output. -v Prints the program's version. ENCHANT ORDERING FILE Enchant has a global and a per-user ordering file named enchant.ordering. It lets the user specify which spelling backend to use for individual lan- guages in the case when you care which backend gets used. The global file is located in $(datadir)/enchant and the per-user file is located in ~/.en- chant. The per-user file takes precedence, if found. The ordering file takes the form language_tag:<comma-separated list of spelling backends>. I am currently aware of the following backends: aspell, myspell, ispell, uspell, hspell, voikko, and zemberek. '*' is used to mean "use this ordering for all languages, unless instructed otherwise." For ex- ample: *:aspell,myspell,ispell en:aspell,myspell,ispell en_UK:myspell,aspell,ispell fr:myspell,ispell:aspell DIRECTORIES IMPORTANT TO ENCHANT Unless configured otherwise, Enchant's Myspell, Ispell, and Uspell backends will look for dictionaries in directories specific to Enchant, and will not use your system-wide installed dictionaries. This is for pragmatic reasons since many distributions install these dictionaries into different loca- tions. Like the enchant.ordering file described above, Enchant looks in the global directory for these dictionaries and a per-user directory. The per-user directory takes precedence if it is found. Enchant looks for Myspell dic- tionaries in $(datadir)/enchant/myspell and ~/.enchant/myspell. Enchant looks for Ispell dictionaries in $(datadir)/enchant/ispell and ~/.en- chant/ispell. Enchant looks for Uspell dictionaries in $(datadir)/en- chant/uspell and ~/.enchant/uspell. Packagers and users may wish to make symbolic links to the system-wide dic- tionary directories. Or, preferably, use the --with-myspell-dir, --with-is- pell-dir, and --with-uspell-dir 'configure' arguments.
