[aspell-devel] New Aspell Snapshot

[Kevin Atkinson]

A new Aspell snapshot is now available: 
  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/aspell-0.60-20040416.tar.gz

This snapshot contains an important bug fix when using non iso-8859-1 
character sets.

Major Changes in the 20040413 release:

  * Unicode Normalization is now supported as described in 
    http://aspell.net/devel-doc/man/Unicode-Normalization.html

  * Language names can now include a '_' so that the country
    code may be included when it is appropriate.

  * Bug fixes

Important changes that were introduces in the 20040402 snapshot:

  * The dictionary format unfortunately changes again due to a number of
    bugs that were discovered.

  * The format and name of the character set data file changed again.
    The extension changed from .dat to .cset.  The format and name
    should be stable now.

Important changes that were introduced with the 20040317 snapshot:

  1) I decided to name the next Aspell version 0.60 since almost every 
     part of Aspell has been refactored or rewritten to some extent.

  2) Dictionaries and data files are now installed in LIBDIR/aspell-0.60 
     so that Aspell 0.50 and 0.60 can more peacefully coexist.
