NAME
     spelldump	-  Sphinxsearch  tool  for  extract the contents of a dictionary
     file.

SYNOPSIS
     spelldump [OPTIONS] dictionary affix [result] [locale-name]

DESCRIPTION
     Sphinx is a collection of programs that aim to provide high  quality  full-
     text search.

     spelldump	is  used  to extract the contents of a dictionary file that uses
     ispell or MySpell format, which can help build word lists for  wordforms  -
     all of the possible forms are pre-built for you.

     The  two main parameters are the dictionary's main file and its affix file;
     usually these are named as [language-prefix].dict and [language-prefix].aff
     and will be available with most common Linux distributions, as well as var-
     ious places online.  [result] specifies where the dictionary data should be
     output to, and [locale-name] additionally specifies the locale details  you
     wish to use.

     Examples of its usage are:

	 spelldump en.dict en.aff
	 spelldump ru.dict ru.aff ru.txt ru_RU.CP1251
	 spelldump ru.dict ru.aff ru.txt .1251

     The  results file will contain a list of all the words in the dictionary in
     alphabetical order, output in the format of a wordforms file, which you can
     use to customise for your specific circumstances.

     An example of the result file:

	 zone > zone
	 zoned > zoned
	 zoning > zoning

OPTIONS
     -c [FILE]
	 specifies a file for case conversion details.
