Package: aspell
Version: 0.60.4-3
Severity: normal
aspell seems to skip files matching "*.c". This wasn't documented in
the manpage, so I had to spend some time on it before coming to this
conclusion. Oh, after rechecking my 26 files, I notice that it misses
*.h, too. Please either:
- don't skip files based on extension; or,
- print a diagnostic message when a file is skipped;
*AND*
- document the behavior
BTW, it opens the file 7 times anyway:
$ strace -e open aspell check aspell.c 2>&1 |grep 'aspell\.c'
open("/home/pryzbyj/.aspell.conf", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/etc/aspell.conf", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("aspell.c.new", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0100644) = 4
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("aspell.c", O_RDONLY) = 5
