[linux-help] Re: ispell's dictionary

[John Reinke <jmreinke@xxxxxxxxx>]

In that directory are binary files (such as americanmed+.hash). I'd guess
those are the dictionaries. Binary files don't take up as much room and are
also therefore quicker to search. I don't know what format is used for the
files, so you might want to research how to translate the dictionary to
ASCII if that's what you need.
