The dictionary's index file has been updated for AlphaSpell VI.

        Dies ist ein deutsches AlphaSpell Wörterbuch.

        This is a German AlphaSpell lexicon based on:

        ftp://sable.ox.ac.uk/pub/wordlists/german/germanl.Z

        I don't know who originally compiled the wordlist. The original
wordlist was entirely in 7-bit ASCII, using `"' after vowels to indicate
umlauts, and `sS' to indicate `ß'. So I wrote a conversion script for
Rainer Koppler's program Cvt, which translated it to ISO Latin. That script
is included in this package.

        I came across a larger German dictionary at the same site, which
had German words written entirely in Roman characters. Umlauted vowels were
followed by an e, and ss replaced ß. I've translated the umlauts, but I
don't yet know how to decide which s-pairs should be converted into ß. Once
I've learned how, I'll finish translating it and upload it.
