A script for building a Latin dictionary from William Whitaker's Words

License: BSD for the script. Unknown for the source, therefore not redistributed here.

Usage:

  runghc MkLatin.hs

Output:

  DictLatAbs.gf
  DictLat.gf

Uses Herbert Lange's RGL implementation of Latin (darcs version of 2017-01-19 with ParadigmsLat.mkAdv added by AR)

Coverage of first version: 90%; 3938 missing out of 39227 entries. Marked with leading "--"
Reasons for uncovered entries
- uncommon category (e.g. structural words)
- missing case in ParadigmsLat.gf, e.g. deponent verbs

Matching for adjectives (A) uncertain, because we only use ParadigmsLat.gf.mkA : Str -> A

Verb subcat information is uncertain, too. It is based on the src's TRANS and INTRANS flags.
