Hello,
I'm really excited about the abiword project, and want to help out. So I
downloaded the source from CVS, got the other stuff I needed
(abidistfiles, expat, etc), and got everything to compile and run nicely.
When I ran my new copy though, I got an error message on startup that
said:
Can't open /usr/local/AbiSuite/dictionaryamerican.hash
...and the spell checker didn't work. I looked in /usr/local/AbiSuite and
saw that there was a directory called dictionary that contained a file
called american.hash.
I figured, "Great, they just left out a slash somewhere! This is a
perfect thing for me to try and fix..." So I found a == in
abi/src/wp/ap/unix/ap_UnixApp.cpp that looked like it should be a !=, and
changed it. It looks like everything works now... I'm not sure if I'm
missing something, and I'm not sure if I even made this patch correctly!
(is it just
"cvs diff -c abi/src/wp/ap/unix/ap_UnixApp.cpp > patch.diff"
?),
but I thought I should just jump in, send it out here, and if I was
off-base somehow, the friendly denizens of this list would let me know. :)
The patch is attached.
