Just tried 0.99.3 (couldn't find a tarball of 0.99.4 on the website). Built with
this:
sudo make UNIX_CAN_BUILD_STATIC=1 ABI_REQUIRE_PEER_ICONV=1 install
(Dynamic executable fails with unresolved symbol, z_errmsg).
Had to patch ap_UnixApp.cpp and ap_UnixDialog_New.cpp due to "struct *dirent" being
declared as const, then passed to a function looking for a non-const pointer (bugs
3091, 2886). Also a pow2 fix (bug 2885).
Dictionary was installed as part of AW installation:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2156456 Apr 8 00:20 american.hash
Everything's still showing up as misspelled (except for the word "a").
