Short: Wordworth dictionary converter (AGA>1.0) Author: tmg296@ecs.soton.ac.uk (Tristan Greaves) Uploader: tmg296@ecs.soton.ac.uk (Tristan Greaves) Version: 1.0 Type: util/batch WWSpellCon is an AmigaDOS script which will convert a Wordworth AGA dictionary disk to a format which can be used with Wordworth 1.0. I wrote this script after my brother's Wordworth 1.0 dictionary disk became corrupted, and there wasn't a backup to hand. However, after a bit of fiddling, I got my Wordworth AGA dictionary disk to work with his system, and decided to write this script to make the task a bit easier in the future. From feedback I have received, it seems that all versions of Wordworth AGA (Including Version 4) use the same dictionary format. As a consequence, this converter should work correctly with all of them. This script has been tested successfully with the following conversion: Wordworth 1200/4000 Special Edition ---> Wordworth v1.0 I would much appreciate it if you e-mailed me with the details of any other configurations that you use this script on. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 1148 530 53.8% 10-Jan-97 14:48:12 +WWSpellCon 5307 2114 60.1% 10-Jan-97 14:48:02 +WWSpellCon.guide 542 267 50.7% 04-Jan-97 22:18:52 +WWSpellCon.guide.info 464 207 55.3% 04-Jan-97 01:56:10 +WWSpellCon.info 628 269 57.1% 06-Jan-97 22:32:56 WWSpellCon.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 8089 3387 58.1% 16-Jan-97 09:26:34 5 files
