Hi Dom,
       The following patch to link-grammar prevents segfaults when
attempting to load a dictionary file when linked to abiword. I guess
there is a symbol conflict with "advance" somewhere.

Now when I place the "data" directory in the same directory I run
AbiWord link-grammar loads and grammar checks the document.

Maybe "link_advance" should be made static?

I'll leave it to you to decide.

It Works!

But long complex sentences seem to bring link grammar to it's knees. I
think we need to implement a cpu-time limit per sentence.

I'm pretty impressed with link-grammar so far. I haven't found a
sentence it has got wrong yet.

On the abiword side we have to come up with some heuristics for when to
re-check a paragraph.

ie Do we want to recheck on every keystroke, when the insertion point
leaves a paragraph, once per second?

I've played with MS Word a bit and I'm not sure what they do.

Cheers

Martin
