here is ispell for atariSt TOS.
minimal setup
- setenv LIB, HOME appropriately (no trailing '\'s)
- buildhash.ttp dict.2 ispell.hsh
- mv ispell.hsh to LIB (default is \lib, ie: a directory
called "lib" at the top level of the current drive)
- ispell foo.fil will run in interactive mode.
(the backup file will be named foo.bak, so watch out that you
dont already have a file by that name, it will be over-writen)
words that you add to personal dict ("i" command in the
interactive mode) will go into HOME\ispell.wds, on subsequent runs
this file is looked up.
to run in batch mode do:
ispell -l < bar.baz
spelling errors to stdout
for other options and modes see ispell.doc. there are many more ENV vars
see the source and ispell.doc.
buildhash.ttp will not run on a machine with less than 2M of memory.
if you dont have a machine with 2M or more memory, build ispell.hsh
on your unix host or somewhere, binary download it, and use.
ispell runs just fine on a stock atari 1040. (if you have a machine
with larger memory, consider increasing __DEFAULT_BUFSIZ__)
enjoy,
