hunspell-distributed's Issues

Support personal dictionaries

Note: syncing with upstream (GH-1) will probably fix this

man 5 hunspell contains the following section:

Personal dictionary file

Personal dictionaries are simple word lists. Asterisk at the first character position signs prohibition. A second word separated by a slash sets the affixation.

foo
Foo/Simpson
*bar

In this example, "foo" and "Foo" are personal words, plus Foo will be recognized with affixes of Simpson (Foo's etc.) and bar is a forbidden word.

The CLI, hunspell(1) has a -p dict option, with the following notes:

Set path of personal dictionary. The default dictionary depends on the locale settings. The following environment variables are searched: LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and LANG. If none are set then the default personal dictionary is $HOME/.hunspell_default.

Setting -d or the DICTIONARY environmental variable, personal dictionary will be $HOME/.hunspell_dicname

The API, hunspell(3), states the following:

The add(), add_with_affix() and remove() are helper functions of a personal dictionary implementation to add and remove words from the base dictionary in run-time
