Hi, Tapio. Recently prepared a QA upload for enchant and am now looking at other bug reports for it, > Man page for enchant does not mention option -d (nor -h). > > $ enchant -h > Usage: enchant [options] -a|-d dict|-l|-L|-m|-v[v]|<file> > -a lists alternatives. > -d dict uses dictionary <dict>. > -l lists misspellings. > -m is ignored. > -L displays line numbers. > -v displays program version. Not only that, -a does not list alternatives, but means pipe mode in the same was as for ispell > Furhermore enchant -d fi and -d fi_FI do not produce the same result. > Looks like -d fi works as expected, -d fi_FI makes strange results. > $ cat test-material-for-enchant-2.txt > Hallinnolliset tiedot > Tietoa tästä ohjeesta > This manual was created for Sarge's debian-installer, based on the > Woody > installation manual for boot-floppies, which was based on earlier > Debian > installation manuals, and on the Progeny distribution manual which was > released under GPL in 2003. Is this still true? > $ enchant -l -d fi < test-material-for-enchant-2.txt > $ enchant -l -d fi_FI < test-material-for-enchant-2.txt seems to work well here (Note that this is enchant 1.6.0, so this problem may have been fixed in the meantime) > According to enchant-lsmod, a different backend is used for fi_FI than > for fi. > $ enchant-lsmod -list-dicts > fi (voikko) > en (ispell) > en_PH (ispell) > en_US (ispell) > fi_FI (myspell) > tr (zemberek) This is also the result here, but voikko seems indeed used for both fi anf fi_FI, $ enchant-lsmod -lang fi fi (voikko) $ enchant-lsmod -lang fi_FI fi_FI (voikko) Will try to look deeper when I have time. > At least the man pages needs more material. Maybe the program works as > intended, but the docs should document the intentions. Agreed. There are already two patches for that man page and as mentioned above more changes are needed.
