<p><strong>Background</strong><br />
Lingucomponent was started by Kevin Hendricks to integrate various open source
spell checkers into the OpenOffice.org build. With a little prodding from
Kevin Atkinson, the author of Pspell (now <a href="http://aspell.sourceforge.net/">Aspell</a>),
a new spell checker called MySpell
was written in C++ that supported affix compression, based on Ispell.
MySpell was used to support spell checking in
OpenOffice.org 1.x. MySpell has been replaced with
<a href="http://hunspell.sourceforge.net/">hunspell</a> starting with OpenOffice.org 2.0.2.
Hunspell builds on MySpell but supports Unicode and adds several other useful features.</p>
