Include default dictionaries in the distribution/executable #11

Open huonw opened 10 years ago

This avoids problems of there being no cross-platform dictionary, and e.g. /usr/share/dict/words differing even if it does exist.

Preferably this would have (at least) two sections

with both loaded by default, but both independently disableable.

This could even be generalised to have other languages (would need custom logic for each for #5 though).

Some solutions to add whole word lists could be princeton wordnet which has a very simple MIT/BSD-like license, or /share/dict/words from FreeBSD which is BSD licensed

@sinistersnare thanks for tracking those down, they do seem like good possibilities.
