The Danish Ispell Dictionary
This is the Danish dictionary,
to be used with ispell version 3.1.
Installation
First check that ispell is installed on your system.
If it isn't, you can get the source code from
ispell's home page,
http://fmg-www.cs.ucla.edu/geoff/ispell.html.
Note that ispell must be compiled without the directive
NO8BIT in the file local.h.
Download idanish-1.2.1.tar.gz.
Then run the commands
gunzip idanish-1.2.1.tar.gz
tar -xvf idanish-1.2.1.tar
cd idanish-1.2.1
buildhash dansk.datalista dansk.aff dansk.hash
cp dansk.aff dansk.hash /usr/lib/ispell
cd ..
rm -r idanish-1.2.1
(You might have to substitute e.g. /usr/local/lib/ispell for
/usr/lib/ispell above. Use
ispell -vv | grep LIBDIR to find out the correct location.
If you can't write to that directory, copy the files to your
home directory and specify the path to dansk.hash
each time you run ispell. Use
ispell -d ./dansk -C filename
to spellcheck filename if dansk.hash
is located in the current directory.)

The wordlist
The file dansk.datalista
is based on the wordlist DANSK.WRD which
is contained in the file
ftp://sable.ox.ac.uk/pub/wordlists/danish/dansk.zip.
We do not know who is the author of DANSK.WRD;
neither do the maintainer of sable.ox.ac.uk.
If you know where the wordlist comes from, please inform me
(goran_a@sslug.imm.dtu.dk).
We created the first version of
dansk.datalista from dansk.zip using
the command
unzip -p dansk.zip | tr -d '\015' | munchlist -l dansk.aff -v > dansk.datalista
Note that it might take a few hours to run this command,
and that you need a lot of memory. The files dansk.zip
and dansk.aff must be in the current directory.
Bugs
- The dictionary contains a lot of misspelled words.
