Hello, Vim list! I made a pt.utf-8.spl from myspell-pt_BR, and placed it in ~/.vim/spell/. When I run ":set spell spelllang=pt_BR", I get an error message: "Warning: region BR not supported". My locale is pt_BR, and I'm sure vim knows about that because ":lang" yields "pt_BR.UTF-8". Curiously, running ":set spell spelllang=~/.vim/spell/pt.utf-8.spl" works!
http://ftp.vim.org/vim/runtime/spell/README_pt.txt doesn't have any contact information for the maintainers, and logs changes up to 2002, when the pt_PT and pt_BR dictionaries where based on the ispell ones. Since then the br.ispell maintainer has disappeared, and the myspell dictionary developed by BrOffice.org (OOo's pt_BR community) became circa ten times larger than br.ispell. I released recently an updated aspell6-pt_BR based on BrOffice.org's dictionay, and would like everyone to have an updated pt_BR dictionary for vim. Please help me: - Use the custom dictionay without "region not supported" errors. - Contact the pt.ENC.(spl|sug) maintainers. - Understand how to create a sug file. - How the better way to talk to Bram about pt dict maintainership. Thanks! Leonardo F. Fontenelle
