Spell CheckCream comes with a small default spell check. But for those interested, more complete dictionaries and additional languages are available. Just drop the optional files below into the subdirectory called "spelldicts" found in your system's Cream folder. Special note: Cream's spelling functionality was overhauled at version 0.31beta2 requiring re-downloading and installing the new ones below. If you wish to remove the old dictionaries, just be sure you don't remove the user dictionaries "cream-spell-dict-usr_*.vim" since these personal dictionaries are still valid.
Notes
For DevelopersThis section is now obsolete, since all of the spelling dictionary development documentation has been moved into Cream's CVS spelling dictionary module. Please see the README.txt file for a general introduction.. Interested in creating a dictionary for your language? Read on! New Tools!After terrific effort by Wolfgang Hommel, the project now has a set of developer tools for making and processing spell check dictionaries from wordlists. The source code of dictttool.sh and makedict4 are available from Cream CVS. (See CVS Help for more information about CVS.) These tools are quite simple to use if you know anything about the command line or console. Even if you don't and want to try using them to create a dictionary for your language, feel free to write us for assistance. We can create Cream dictionaries from any valid wordlist. A wordlist is simply a file that has only a single word per line, each which represents a properly spelled word. Unix currently has many dictionaries already in wordlist form (see references below). The two tools provide all the functionality needed to make a dictionary in just a few short commands. dicttool.shThis is a Unix script tool (install Cygwin if you're on Windows) to manipulate wordlists. Use it to create a Cream dictionary, convert an existing one back into a wordlist, count the number of words, sort a file, and do several forms of differentiation between wordlists. Just type makedict4This C program formats the wordlists into a Cream dictionary. It slices the words into lines and formats them all into correct syntax groups. makedict4 actually parses the wordlist into four distinct parts, each of which is loaded by Cream according to case-sensitivity and multi-word rules. The resultant four files equal one dictionary. To compileCompile on the Unix platform with On Windows, use the syntax Useagemakedict4 MYDICT WORDLIST Create VIM/Cream dictionary files named MYDICT_1.vim, MYDICT_2.vim, MYDICT_3.vim and MYDICT_4.vim based on the words in WORDLIST. Note that the output file will be appended to if it already exists, not overwritten. Further Sources for Dictionaries and Wordlists
