No worries, holidays are far more important than patches like this...

Using a common format for the dictionary and any suggested corrections would be good too. Maybe the dictionary and code should be changed to use the codespell format. It seems a bit more flexible than the lintian form. I do not know if one project is more active than the other, but perhaps that should be the deciding factor. Or maybe just Kees' preference... Merging all these together might not be a good solution though. Right now, the checkpatch spelling code uses word boundaries that include an underscore. checkpatch spelling tests are done on 4 segments of a #define like "PREFIX_PREFERED_SEG_ABC" finding the misspelling of PREFERED. Some sifting of the dictionary is still necessary to eliminate some common prefixes to avoid too many false positives. For example, "ths" was dropped because it's a prefix used by several modules even though it's a somewhat frequent typo. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
