What is libvoikko.i686
This is libvoikko, library for spellcheckers and hyphenators using Malaga natural language grammar development tool. The library is written in C. Currently only Finnish is supported, but the API of the library has been designed to allow adding support for other languages later. Note however that Malaga is rather low level tool that requires implementing the whole morphology of a language as a left associative grammar.
