Hi folks,

I think I've submitted pedicure before. Perhaps a more general rule
would be appropriate, but the only word I've come across (and I've
looked until I'm plum bored!) is pedicure. So in the interest of not
breaking anything I'll stay specific and let Dave, who has an
astonishing ability to consider alternatives (and we're darn lucky he
does!), see if he can point out any other errors. In the meantime,
here are some pedicures for your enjoyment :-):

Pipedream should not use the ed sign:

Although Porthos is only a character in a book (The Three Musketeers
among others), he is a famous one and I think deserves to be in this
august company. After all, if we can do antheap we can do Porthos. All
of my examples happen to be from one book (The Man in the Iron Mask)
which makes this very vulnerable to translator error, but I can't see
any good reason to doubt it:

Fixing -us- in the middle of a word fixes en-us-g2.ctb which is better
than nothing. It doesn't fix things like en_US.UTF-8 (which at least
has two cap signs) or us_unicode (but that's only a JAWS file anyway).

And I've already attached the patch so I couldn't forget it if I
tried. :-)

Have fun,
