On the surface, Enchant appears to be a generic spell checking library.
You can request dictionaries from it, ask if a word is correctly spelled,
get corrections for a misspelled word, etc. Enchant isn't really
a spell checking library at all. It doesn't try to do any of the work itself.
It's lazy, and requires backends to do most of its dirty work.
Looking closer, you'll see the Enchant is more-or-less a fancy wrapper
around the dlopen() system call. Enchant steps in to provide uniformity
and conformity on top of these libraries, and implement certain features
that may be lacking in any individual provider library.
