in the office directory.

        What is Enchant?
        On the surface, Enchant appears to be a generic spell checking
        library. You can request dictionaries from it, ask if a word is
        correctly spelled, get corrections for a misspelled word, etc...
        
        Beneath the surface, Enchant is a whole lot more - and less -
        than that. You'll see that Enchant isn't really a spell checking
        library at all.
        
        "What's that?" you ask. Well, Enchant doesn't try to do any of
        the work itself. It's lazy, and requires backends to do most of
        its dirty work. Looking closer, you'll see the Enchant is
        more-or-less a fancy wrapper around the dlopen() system call.
        Enchant steps in to provide uniformity and conformity on top of
        these libraries, and implement certain features that may be
        lacking in any individual provider library. Everything should
        "just work" for any and every definition of "just working."

Why do we care???
Some applications are beginning to use it.
