Add license statement

Hi guys,

this is an awesome piece of work!
I think LibreOffice project would be very interested in adding it to its spellcheckers.
Their vocab is no match.
I think the only link that is missing is a license statement (maybe MIT license?).

Best,
Barney

Duplicate affix rule

The following rule in affix file is duplicated. Please remove one line.

It generates so few files

I have tried to generate all forms of Arabic words in this dictionary

https://github.com/linuxscout/ayaspell/tree/master/dict

It generated only 294224 words

I know there are millions of valid cases

Any idea why?

Here my modified unmunchit.sh file

LC_ALL=ar_AE.utf8  ../tools/unmunch.sh \
../Arab/arb_alias.dic \
../Arab/arb_alias.aff  \
> results.txt

path of saving dictionary files does not match with the one mentioned in the config file

Correct your dictionary as shown below:

## Download and unzip your file
# mkdir hindi
# cd hindi
# wget https://github.com/Shreeshrii/hindi-hunspell/raw/master/hi_spellchecker_OOo3.oxt
# unzip hi_spellchecker_OOo3.oxt 

## Note the path mentioned in config file
# grep origin dictionaries.xcu
<value>%origin%/dictionaries/hi_IN.aff %origin%/dictionaries/hi_IN.dic</value>

## affix and dict files should be in a folder and not at root
## Create a folder and move dict files
# mkdir dictionaries
# mv hi_IN.* dictionaries/
# cd dictionaries

## Add number of lines at the top of the dict file
# wc -l hi_IN.dic
207694 hi_IN.dic
# vi hi_IN.dic

## SET UTF-8 at the top of affix file
# vi hi_IN.aff

## zip the file and test with libreoffice
# cd ..
# zip -r hindi.oxt *

Unexpected behaviour of hi_IN dictionary

Tried hi_IN dictionary with Hunspell (v1.7.0) on macOS 10.13. It is producing incorrect results for words within and outside the dictionary.

Hunspell 1.7.0
शब्द
# शब्द 0

द्वारा
# द्व 0
# र 4

ढूंढेगा
# ढूंढेग 0

आवश्यकता
# आवश्यकत 0

कोशिश
# क 0
# श 2
# श 4

बिंदु
# ब 0
# ंदु 2

दुनिया
# ब 0
# ंदुन 2
# य 7

बनाना
# बन 0
# न 3

अपरिमाप्य
# अपर 0
# म 4
# प्य 6

I have also noticed that the words are incorrectly split where ा, ि, ी, ो, ौ mAtra occurs. This may contribute to the incorrect results.
