Help to improve the spellchecker #1

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

Currently the most updated Khmer spellchecker is the one from the KhmerOS
http://www.khmeros.info/drupal/?q=en/node/1941

However in 2006 somebody also released another OpenOffice Khmer spellchecker.
http://www.sbbic.org/en/khmer-spelling-checker

Can we compare both and get a final one with both best features?

The KhmerOS spellchecker currently only contains a .bat installer for Windows. 
It
should come with a Language Pack to be installed using OpenOffice Dicooo.

For Ooo 3.x we should package it as an OXT extension.

It seems to be a 3rd spellchecker, this time not Hunspell but based on Hidden 
Markov
Model, here is the PDF document:

The spellchecker is developed in Python and it can be found here (inactive 
since 2006):
