Problem

Solutions: Option B on the 5.1 speller: "Compress/Expand Supplemental Dictionary" is used to either compress a Supplemental Dictionary or expand a Supplemental Dictionary. The user must be working with a supplemental dictionary in order to use this option. To do this, choose option #1 and then choose option #2 to change the name to the supplemental dictionary. Then select option B, use option #1 to Compress the .SUP file or option #2 to Expand the .SUP file. When the file is compressed, it is usually smaller and the WP speller will be faster. When fully implemented, if the user has a compressed .SUP file, it will be used for typo and phonetic features within WP on misspelled words. When the file is in expanded format, it can be retrieved into WP as a normal file and edited if needed. Option C on the 5.1 speller: "Extract Added Words from Word-list Based Dictionary" is used to extract words which a user has added to the word list .LEX file. These extracted words are put into the .SUP file which he chooses in option C. This option is only valid for people converting from a word-list based speller to a rules based speller. In order to use this option, a WP{WP}.SPR file must be in the directory that the rules based .LEX file is in. The user is asked for the names of 3 files: 1. It asks for the word-list based .LEX filename. 2. It asks for the rules based .LEX filename. 3. It asks for the .SUP filename. After it is done, the .SUP file will contain all the words which were in the word-list based .LEX file, but not in the rules based .LEX file. There is no way to uncompress or expand the main dictionary (WP{WP}US.LEX) into a word list.
