* NOTE: A special thanks and credit goes to Geoff Kuenning
* the creator of ispell. MySpell's affix algorithms were
* based on those of ispell which should be noted is
* copyright Geoff Kuenning et.al. and now available
* under a BSD style license. For more information on ispell
* and affix compression in general, please see:

* (the home page for ispell)
*
* An almost complete rewrite of MySpell for use by
* the Mozilla project has been developed by David Einstein
* (Deinst@world.std.com). David and I are now
* working on parallel development tracks to help
* our respective projects (Mozilla and OpenOffice.org
* and we will maintain full affix file and dictionary
* file compatibility and work on merging our versions
* of MySpell back into a single tree. David has been
* a significant help in improving MySpell.
*
* Special thanks also go to La'szlo' Ne'meth
* <nemethl@gyorsposta.hu> who is the author of the
* Hungarian dictionary and who developed and contributed
* the code to support compound words in MySpell
* and fixed numerous problems with the encoding
* case conversion tables.
