* // To index a field of a user index:
* spellcheck.indexDictionary(new LuceneDictionary(my_lucene_reader, a_field));
* // To index a file containing words:

// Specialized SpellChecker for Compass.
// List of changes: (Mainly to separte between two use cases: one is for indexing and one for searching).
// 1. Added a constructor that accepts a searcher and reader ("searching" spell checker)
// 2. Changed searcher type from IndexSearcher to Searcher
// 3. Added close method
// 4. In indexDictioanry, if the searcher is null, don't reopen it
// 5. Added a constructor that won't open an index searcher ("indexing" spell checker)
// 6. Added indexDictionary that accepts a dictionary and IndexWriter so we can configure it
// LUCENE MONITOR
