How to maintain a list of names for the Hunspell spell checker?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
2
Hunspell should help the user to write names properly.
The names should be defined in the home directory of the user, so that every user can define his or her own list of important names.
If a user starts to create a dictionary of names it would be very feasible to check for the full names:
# Name # should be detected as
Walter Brattain # correct
Walter Britain # wrong
Leon Cooper # correct
Leon Copper # wrong
Léon Brillouin # correct
Leon Brillouin # wrong
How can I generate the required dictionary?
I tried so far
cat ~/.hunspell_default/mynames.dic
Walter Brattain
Leon Cooper
Léon Brillouin
cat ~/.hunspell_default/mynames.aff
SET UTF-8
TRY esianrtolcdugmphbyfvkwzESIANRTOLCDUGMPHBYFVKWZ'
But this does not help Hunspell to find the misspelled names.
~/.hunspell_default$ echo "Walter Britain and Leon Copper visit Leon Brillouin." | hunspell -m -p mynames.dic
Walter st:Walter
Walter st:Walt fl:R
Britain st:Britain
and st:and
Leon st:Leon
Copper st:copper
Copper st:cop fl:R
visit st:visit
Leon st:Leon
Brillouin st:Brillouin

Do you have a $HOME/.hunspell_default ?

@DMcKeon No. Thank you. My dict folder name was wrong. I will change it. Is it sufficient to put the number of words and the wordlist as in the box simply in$HOME/.hunspell_default/mynames.dic? Or do I have to convert it and create the.afffile too?

Rather than trying to summarize, I'll just quote: > A dictionary file (*.dic) contains a list of words, one per line and refer you to: manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man5/hunspell.5.html
