Compress/Expand Supplemental Dictionary: File |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: In 5.1 (all releases to current date) compressing and expanding the supplemental dictionary continually increases the size of the supplemental dictionary. It gets bigger going both ways. Solutions: This feature is working as designed. Compressing, expanding, adding, and deleting words in the .SUP file, using SPELL.EXE, will cause small amounts of wasted space in the file. By loading this file into WP and resaving it to disk, WP will clean out the wasted spaces and the file will only contain needed data. If the .SUP file was expanded, and the user is sure there are no words in a compressed packet, then the file can be loaded into WP and saved in DOS text format, then reloaded and saved in WP format, to remove the compressed packet from the .SUP file. Most users need only to compress their .SUP file if words in the .SUP file are being flagged as misspelled in WP. This means their whole .SUP file isn't being loaded into memory. If a feature is generating a large number of calls, it can (and should be), addressed through the common calll list. |
