Indonesian Kata Baku Checker

An example is worth a thousand words.

Assume that I have a text file named teks.txt

Nama saya Ucup. Saya adalah seorang atlit tauladan.
Saya juga adalah seorang cendikiawan yang memiliki kreatifitas tinggi.

If I run the program with bakuCheck teks.txt, It will give the following output:

Requirement

Python 3.x

Usage

In this usage instruction, I assume that you use Linux Operating System. For other OS users, you can adapt this instruction for your own OS.

With Symbolic Link (Recommended)

It is recommended that you create a symbolic link from the script to /usr/bin/bakuCheck, so you can run this script from any folder. To create a symbolic link, simply use this following command:

sudo ln -s <path-to-script>/bakuCheck.py /usr/bin/bakuCheck

Now, in the same folder with the text file that you want to check, just use this command:

bakuCheck <filename>

Without Symbolic Link

If you don't have a root access, you can use this command:

./bakuCheck.py <path-to-file>/<filename>

Improvement Suggestion

Add other common mistakes to the dictionary list dict.txt. See the format below.
Create more checkers.

Dictionary List

The default dictionary list file is dict.txt placed in the root folder of the script. To change the dictionary list file, simply change the dictFile constant in the bakuCheck.py. The format of this file follow the format below:

<correct word 1>|<wrong word 1>
<correct word 2>|<wrong word 2>
<correct word 3>|<wrong word 3>
<correct word 4>|<wrong word 4>
...
<correct word n>|<wrong word n>

Although the program automatically detect duplicate entries and treat it as one, it is indeed not a good thing to keep duplicate entries in the dictionary list file. So, I made a simple script improveDict.py to delete duplicate entries (leave one of them). Usage :

./improveDict.py <src> <dst>

where src is the current dictionary list file and dst is the "improved" dictionary list file.

P.S : even I don't know why I named it "improve" :D
