NAME

voikkospell - test program for Voikko spell checker

SYNOPSIS

voikkospell [options]

DESCRIPTION

voikkospell is a test program for spell checking functionality in libvoikko, library of language tools. It reads words from stdin (one word on a line) and print them to stdout, adding "C: " in front of correct words and "W: " in front of incorrect words.

Common options of different Voikko test programs are listed in COMMON OPTIONS.

OPTIONS

-m: In addition to spelling result, prints morphological analysis info (A:) for recognized words.
-M: Prints morphological analysis info (A:) for recognized words without displaying spelling result.
-t: Prints only "C" or "W" instead of typical full output.
-tt: Prints only misspelled words.
-s: Prints suggestions (S:) for incorrectly spelled words.
-cn: Set cache size parameter to n. -1 disables the cache and 0 is the default. For checking large amounts of unsorted text you may want to set n to 5 to get better performance.
-j n: Use n threads for spell checking. When more than one thread is used checking is performed using large internal buffers which is why this mode should only be used for batch processing.
-xc: Like voikkospell -s but output is printed on one line separated by character c without "C", "W" or "S" in front of the words. If c is not defined words are separated by space and suggestions that have spaces in them are not printed.
-l: Prints a list of available dictionary variants and exits. The first variant is the default to be used when no specific variant has been requested.
-L: Prints a list of capabilities and languages for which these capabilities are supported.
ignore_nonwords=n
