Note: The instructions >0 are no longer uptodate. Please refer to the aspell
      documentation and read there how to make a dictionary from a wordlist.
      I don't support aspell very good yet because aspell doesn't support
      non-english languages good yet. Hope this changes soon.

You can easily create an aspell dictionary file:

0. You need to have installed BOTH Ispell (just for affix expansion during
   installation process) and Aspell (for hashfile creation) on your system.
   For convenience (and people with only 32 MASKBITS ...) I will also put an
   aspell package on the igerman98 homepage that doesn't need ispell for
   installation.

0.1 copy german_phonetic.dat and german.dat (or swiss.dat resp.) to the
    directory that is told you by `aspell dump config | grep data-dir'

0.2 echo "/usr/lib/aspell/german" > /usr/share/pspell/de-aspell.pwli

1. type `make aspell' (or swiss-aspell) ... that may take several minutes.

2. copy `german' (or `swiss' resp.) to your aspell-lib directory (usually
   /usr/local/lib/aspell/ but find out with
   `aspell dump config | grep dict-dir' what directory this is)

3. start aspelling :-)
