Hi Gabriel,

That seems like expected aspell behavior to me. The input list of
words is newline delimited. Your choice of .cwl seem interesting
to me. Kevin Atkinson uses the .rws extenstion for compiled
dictionaries and .cwl for compressed word lists. If you want to
make a compressed wordlist, you can use the prezip utility.
"prezip -z infile outfile.cwl". To decompress "prezip -d
infile.cwl outfile"

Hope that helps,
Gary
