Hi wynd,

I was testing this Swype port and I think this is a great app!!

I'm trying to create a new Spanish Dictionary files from a txt file with 80000 spanish words, but I don't know how I must create it.

The english files are now in /private/var/swype/English...

I can see a lot of plist files with the format %d-%d.plist. So, I was writing a 0-0.plist file using BBEDIT from OSX with an array plist using all the spanish dictionary words, but it's not working...

How can I write this files?, which is the relationship between the words and the dictionary $d-$d names?

I'd like helping to create some dictionary files...

Thank you very much for this app.

King regards from Spain,

Hard.-

I created Dutch dictionary files for iSwype. It is easy. 0 stands for a and 25 for z. The first number is for the first letter of the words and the second is for the last letter of the word. Only basic letters are supported eg. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. So all the words starting with a and ending with a go in the dictionary 0-0 and all the words starting with a and ending with b go in the dictionary 0-1. And so on.
plist files are basicly ninary xml files.

hope this helps you out.

Hi fedorr,

Thanks a lot for your help in order to understand the plist files logical.

I've created my spanish dictionary plist files, and I've developed this osx app helping in this task:

Notice: Use UTF8 encoding source files.

I hope it helps!

Hey folks,

I have created a brazilian portuguese dictionary and it worked! But I have a huge problem with accent. Those words which have accent aren't understood. The worst part is that isn't possible to type the word normally cause when I press the letter and options are presented and after I slide my finger to the accent letter, options goes away.

hard233, Did you solved this problem anyway?

Hi petrusbastos,

I have problems with the spanish words also. This problem is a iSwipe problem, Wyndwarrior is the developer and I hope it will be solved in the next versions.

At this time, I've modified the osx app with a new feature in order to change any word with accents. Something like this:

ático -> atico, españa -> espana, evolución -> evolucion.

It's a bad solution, but maybe enough until Wynd solve the real issue keeping in mind the accent languages.

You can download the new version using the same mediafire link:

EDIT: ver. 1.0.7 - Solving repeated words.

Hi petrusbastos, do you mind sharing your brazilian dictionary with us ?
Thanks a lot, best regards.
Gustavo.

@petrusbastos

Yeah! You can take it here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1272789/dicionario_sem_acento.zip. This version of dictionary is made with no accents.

@guslonghin

I guess you do speak portuguese petrusbastos but I'll continue in english for the information sharing sake :-)
First of all thanks for sharing the dictionary, I've copied it to the directory I've created "/private/var/swype/Portuguese" but still not working. Can you help me ? I'm already running iSwipe perfectly with English selected.
Best regards.
Gustavo.

@petrusbastos

Yes, you are right! :) I've copied above english files!

Thanks a lot.

great job Had233 (and companions), I tried your dictionary and works great ... only one small problem is that when I finish a word does not add the space behind the written word, if I add it with the space bar clears me too ... feel the same? can be solved somehow?

@antongrund

guys,

i created a german dic with the help of that beautiful tool from hard233!!!
it has some 80000 words in it, if somebody needs it... file is called "English (fake)" (as i replaced the english file /private/var/swype/ to make it work and deleted the "fake" then).

http://www.mediafire.com/?96r9cgoqvg3b9r9

for some reasons a couple of regular words dont seem to work, but can be added with the "iswipe add"

a couple of questions though:

can anybody think of way to have two dictionaries at the same time, lets say english and german or spanish etc. and change between them easily?

and does anybody know a tool to have the "iswipe add" in activator?

@JMALDONADOM it does add a space bar in the version 0.4.0 or at least it does in mine just when you start writing the next word...

anyways, THANKS A LOT for the nice work!!!

Here is the german one, I've created it by myself but it isn't working on my iPhone ...

Does anybody know why ?

@Squelsh
Copy link

Squelsh commented Jul 3, 2012

@jigg3 :
As far as I know, there should not be any special characters in the textfiles (keine Umlaute).
But, more important: You can not simply put in one big textfile. You have to use the converter to make lots of small files, with a special naming scheme, regarding the alphabetical order of the first and last letter of the containing words...
How did you generate your word list? I will reimplement the file-converter in C++ and then have a try on my own...

@jigg3
Copy link

jigg3 commented Jul 3, 2012

Sorry guy , you're right. I've uploaded the wrong file!
Some time ago I've already converted this file with a converter, which has splitted this file into many other files - nevertheless it wasn't working.

The file is from a German board.

Attached the "right" files.

I assume that the iSwipe Dictionary Generator is making trouble, it seems that the app is just designed for spanish words.

Have a try... :-)

jigg3 its not working for me. Its not accepting any german word. Any ideas ? Ive just copied those files into the english folder after deleting the other files. Or do I have to keep them?

@lordvampire
what version of iSwipe do you have and from what source? I didn't see a new version to use .txt files instead of .plist.

If someone needs an iSwipe dictionary generated, please provide me a text file, with rows containing only one word / row, and I will try to create the dictionary - .plist files.
I have a dictionary generator software, but I cannot share it because it is not mine.

Cheers! (ruffneckus@gmail.com)

@ruffneck my version is 0.2.1 ..
i now installed 0.3.0, but still the dictionaries are in ..Library/Wynd/Swype

ah yeah.. i installed iswype 0.3.0 from admin.myrepospace.com

@Squelsh the problem with space between the words occur sometimes and sometimes not.. We should find out, when! The mail app problem: We have to analyze the source code for finding the problmem.. I will try to compile first the source code by myself and if get this working, we could try different things...

@lordvampire: the english version 0.4.0 is out since a couple of months. This one reacts much smoother than the 0.3x and thus is much more convenient to use.
Unfortunately the german dictionary from your release 0.3x seems not to be compatible with the new version as this one needs .plist files instead of .txt files.
Do you have the ability to upgrade your german version accordingly to the new 0.4 build?

i really have no time at the moment AND i also have no iPhone at the moment.. so i to update this dict is mot in schedule… sorry..

@ALL: If anyone is still interested in the project: I managed to create a german dictionary thanks to @hard233's tool (see link above) that works with the 0.4 iswipe version that can be found here:
http://www.myrepospace.com/profile/wyndwarrior/106286/iSwipe

Big advantage is that the 0.4 runs really smooth and much faster than the older versions, especially when using whatsapp. Makes a lot of fun now and is a convenient way to text. Thanks to all people working on that (even it makes me still keeping iOS 5.x to maintain my Jailbreak opportunity...)

uninstall your iswype…. install again your iswype, but don't close cydia… connect with SSH to your iPhone and get the deb from var/root/Media/Cydia/AutoInstall..

Hello there,

I would like to create an italian dictionary for iSwipe, I hope you may help me.
I saw that the spanish dictionary provided by hard233:
1 - lists first words made up by 1 letter only, then 2, then 3... is this mandatory ?
2 - words are sort of alphabetically ordered... is this manadatory ?
thanks a lot in advance!

@Magog79, I'm italian, but i speak english now just in case you're not italian too. Today I made a "dictionary maker" in c++ and it's for windows. You just have to give to it a wordlist (in your case an italian one) where words are splitted by spaces or returns, and a destination folder that will contain all file needed by /private/var/swype/English... like 0-0.plist etc...

And here it is:

@rihak: Thanks a lot Rihak, I'm Italian too.
The tool developed by hard233 worked fine for me, but it's good that now we have a Win version too :)
My concern was about support for letters with accent, but anyway I tried TouchPal as jjetzz suggested and I must admit that it's way better, so no point anymroe maybe in using iSwipe.
Touchpal supports italian pretty well, unfortunately when you use it as a Cydia tweak (so taking advantage of integraton in iOS) instead of as standalone app it does not support italian yes, only english.
I sincerely hope that the cydia tweak will be updated accordingly, so it will be perfect!
Cheers.

hi

das einzige touchpal manko sind
die umlaute, scharf s und qwerty tasta

am anfang muss man halt viel normal tippen weil kein dict in deutsch gibt

aber das wird schnell weniger und nach einer woche swype ich fast nur noch…

die umsetzung der Swype technologie
ist aber nicht mit iSwipe vergleichbar ……TouchPal laeuft so wie auf Android devices …einfach perfekt …

und dein mit der zeit erstelltes dict kann man ohne probleme backupen

hoffe ich like konnte helfen

falls uebersetzung fuer TouchPal settings brauchst sag bescheid ……
