Word Lists

A word list acts as a broad alphabet set. A list consists of valid words that can influence the confidence a recognizer places in a guess. After guessing at a word (or phrase), a recognizer can search for the guess in one or more word lists. Locating a guess in a word list helps verify the validity of the guess.

A word list can consist of a small group of words permanently stored in the recognizer's data segment. Often, however, the words reside in an accompanying file that the recognizer reads as required. A word list file should be in standard ANSI text format, one word per line, with each line ending in a carriage return and linefeed. This allows the user to emend the files, if necessary, with a text editor.

A recognizer that uses word lists should export the ReadHWL and WriteHWL functions. These functions read and write standard word list files, enabling an application to move words directly between a file and an HWL object.

The table below lists the exported functions for a recognizer that uses word lists.
