• A Spellchecker Used to Be a Major Feat of Software Engineering

  In some ways, I think computational linguistics (for English) has missed a mark. We have dictionaries, lexicons, grammar engines, spell checkers, pluralization rules, and quotation disambiguation. You'd think we could roll all these into a unified, standard definition format.

  My KeenWrite editor, for instance, uses:

  * https://github.com/DaveJarvis/KeenSpell (spell check, lexicon)

  * https://github.com/DaveJarvis/KeenQuotes (curls straight quotes)

  * https://github.com/DaveJarvis/KeenWrite/blob/main/R/pluraliz... (pluralization)

  I was looking at integrating LanguageTool[0] for grammar and realized that it has partial functionality for KeenQuotes (lexing and tokenization), duplicates the SymSpell algorithm used by KeenSpell, and because it offers grammar corrections it likely can pluralize words, as well.

  Unifying those for English alone would be a massive undertaking.

  KeenQuotes is a utility to help with post-processing plain text documents, such as Markdown. There's no support for HTML elements, yet, nor will it ignore preformatted text sections (such as code snippets).
