-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This utility program can be used to create a User Dictionary file
compatible with ScanSoft Capture Development System v11.0 product.
Since its running requires other ScanSoft DLL files as well, you should place
this executable into the ENGine Binary directory, i.e. where other
executables and DLLs reside.


The utility program
- reads the lines of the input file one after other: each line must contain
  only one word,
- ignores all lines of the input file which contains the SPACE, TAB characters
  or characters not supported by the Code Page specified,
- ignores all words longer than 64 characters,
- ignores all duplicated words,
- do not check thoroughly the correctness of the words in the input file,
- converts the words to their lowercase equivalent.


The INPUTs to this program are
- a file containing the words which should appear in the User Dictionary.
- a string in quotes which identifies a ScanSoft Code Page
  (see: the list enumerated with the RecGetFirstCodePage, RecGetNextCodePage
   functions.)
E.g. "Windows Baltic"

The OUTPUT of this program is
- a User dictionary file, which can be used in any subsequent recognition.
