Nope. The format's vim-specific. Vim upstream consider other formats to be too inefficient for on the fly spellchecking in an editor where you can make extremely quick changes to a lot of text. | > * Does anyone think we should make users build spell lists from | > source, even though it can require several GBytes of RAM? | | Only if requested by user (think about an useflag) USE flags control things that affect the generated content. Building spell files from source every time always produces the same output. -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Shell tools, Fluxbox, Cron) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm
