I found only a few expressions in the Larousse that would get "lost" in this way, namely "qu'en-dira-t-on", "c'est-à-dire" and "m'as-tu-vu". There might be some more cases, but I think this mechanism works in general rather well. To my mind, adding all l'-expressions and so on would be more pain than gain.

I must have missed something, because I think it should indeed be handled by the software : consider ' to be a word delimiter. But on my glo if I put my finger on l'abris and wait for the dictionary to appear, it will say it cannot find an entrance for "l'abris" so it does consider it to be one word. Maybe I have to resize the selection, maybe I can get rid of the l' by moving the left delimiter.

Thanks I didn't try that, I tried moby_unpack which seems to work fine, except it does output an html with a big line of approximately 60 Mo (that's for my smallest dictionary). Now I have to decide for the best language to handle that. I think C would be best but it's been a long time since I didn't program in C, maybe some perl or Python but I would have to reformat the file first I think.
