This code came originally from v7/32v and thence from 4.4BSD. It was freed by Caldera. Todd Miller cleaned up and ANSIfied the code, and then changed it to use the mmap/binary search algorithm for looking up words in the dictionary that look(1) uses, replacing the hash based lookups which were faster but broken by the size of the current dictionary. I've done a teeny bit of additional cleanup and replaced Todd's ksh spell(1) script with a /bin/sh script, and re-structured the code to follow the bsd makefile way, with one executable per directory. I also added a TODO list recommending a bunch of kinds of cleanup. The code is, frankly, awful. It was fine in the 1970s, a time of much more limited resources and tastes, but the world has moved on a bunch since then. The reason for pulling this in at all is that it will make it much easier to check in-tree documentation for spelling errors automatically. |
