### 5.10 AWLI files

In order for Aspell to find dictionaries that are located in odd places or not named according to Dictionary Naming, an AWLI file needs to be created for the dictionary and located in some place where Aspell can find it.

Each AWLI file has a name in the following format:

    language[region][-variety][-size]-module.awli

where the names have the same meaning as in Dictionary Naming, and module is the speller module to use, which should be set to default for now since there is only one speller module.

Each `awli` file for an Aspell word list should then contain exactly one line which contains the full path of the main word list.
