Update of /cvsroot/pkgsrc/textproc/enchant
In directory minbar.netbsd.org:/tmp/cvs-serv15487

Log Message:
Initial import of enchant, a generic spell checking library.

The project aims to provide an efficient extensible abstraction
for dealing with different spell checking libraries.

Enchant is meant to provide a generic interface into various existing
spell checking libaries. These include, but are not limited to:
        * Aspell/Pspell
        * Ispell
        * Hspell
        * Uspell

Enchant is also meant to be used in a cross-platform (XP) environment.
Part of this means that Enchant wants to limit its number of external
dependencies to 0, or as close is as humanly possible. Also, any
enchant consumer (i.e. a Word Processor) should not need to know
about what backend providers Enchant knows about. In fact, Enchant
shouldn't even need to know this information itself. To accomplish
this, all of Enchant's providers are DLLs.

Enchant is also meant to be used in a multi-user environment, such
as Unix.  It is preferable to have both a $USER and a $GLOBAL
location for both provider DLLs and for dictionaries themselves,
when possible. Enchant's DLL location algorithm takes this into
account, and gives preference to the $USER DLLs, when found.
