Hunspell

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hunspell is a spell checker and morphological analyzer designed for languages with rich morphology and complex word compounding or character encoding, originally designed for Hungarian language. It has been the default spell checker of OpenOffice.org office suite since March 2006, and is being incorporated into Mozilla products, such as Mozilla Thunderbird and Mozilla Firefox.

Hunspell's code base comes from MySpell spell checker. Hunspell is free software, distributed under the terms of a GPL/LGPL/MPL tri-license.
