I tried that, it does work, it even makes a kind of sense, but I
didn't mention it because I consider those files as a standard
resource, not configuration. I would expect the next time he does
an install that file would be written over.
His is an interesting case. Co-counsel is a legitimate word, but
Co is not. As I said, google indicates that co-counsel is
preferred to cocounsel. The same with the other words he is
adding.
What do you say? Should Aspell treat the hyphen more like an
ordinary letter?
Best regards,
Gary
