LXXXVIII. Pspell Functions

Introduzione

These functions allow you to check the spelling of a word and offer suggestions.

Requisiti

To compile PHP with pspell support, you need the aspell library, available from http://aspell.sourceforge.net/.

Installazione

If you have the libraries needed add the --with-pspell[=dir] option when compiling PHP.

Note to Win32 Users: win32 support is available only in PHP 4.3.3 and later versions. Also, you must have aspell 0.50 or newer installed. In order to enable this module under Windows, you must copy aspell-15.dll from the bin folder of your aspell installation to a folder where PHP will be able to find it. C:\PHP or the SYSTEM32 folder of your windows machine (Ex: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 or C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32) are good choices.

Easy way to make a spellchecker:



<?



function spellcheck ( $string ) {

    $words = preg_split('/[\W]+?/',$string);

    $misspelled = $return = array();

    $int = pspell_new('en');

    foreach ($words as $value) {

        if (!pspell_check($int, $value)) {

            $misspelled[] = $value;

        }

    }

    foreach ($misspelled as $value) {

        $return[$value] = pspell_suggest($int, $value);

    }

    return $return;

}



?>

I had the same problems after following the detailed instructions for installing on windows but was able to solve them by doing the following:



first, I copied all the files in the data directory of the aspell install (ie. C:\Program Files\Aspell\data) to a unix machine and ran dos2unix on all of the files and then copied them back.



second, added this line before the pspell_new("en") call

pspell_config_create("en");



hope this works for you too.

Aspell Author Here.



Since Aspell 0.50, Pspell is no longer used.  It is not necessary to download and install the Pspell package, only Aspell 0.50 (or better) is required.  Aspell now provided a backwards compatibility interface for programs expecting the old Pspell interface (such as PHP).



Even though Aspell now provided a new "Aspell" interface this, the PHP Pspell interface is the one you want to use.  The Aspell PHP interface is the one used with a *very* old version of Aspell as the manual says.



Sorry if this is confusing, but it is not really my fought as I have no control over PHP development.  Eventually a new Aspell interface should be provided for PHP which uses the new Aspell interface provided with Aspell 0.50 but for now the Pspell interface will work just fine.



Note: If you wish to use an older version of Aspell (_before_ 0.50) than both Aspell and Pspell are required.

As an alternative to mucking about with the compiled-in aspell/pspell functions, which only check word by word, one could write a script that calls aspell as a shell exec to check a whole block of text: 



http://chxo.com/scripts/spellcheck.php

(there is a view-source option)



Not sure about Linux or Windows, but installing aspell on FreeBSD was trivially easy from the ports collection. No doubt such a script could be easily modified to use ispell instead if you'd rather.
