E.g.:
No, the reason is if a user has there language set at "fr" or "fr_XX" where XX is an unknown region that Aspell needs to be able to find the regionless dictionary. With .alias files Aspell will only find them if the user explicitly specifies them with the "master" option. It will not find them if the user just provides a language. --- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org _______________________________________________ Aspell-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-devel
