Description Toralf 2001-10-11 08:46:07 UTC
Description of Problem:
aspell fails to recognise many standard abbreviations, i.e. "words"
containing one or more "."s. Not only does it report them as misspelled,
but it doesn't even understand that the period(s) are part of the words, so
"add" operation can't be used, either.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.2-1 or 0.2-4 (Raw Hide version)

How Reproducible:
Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. aspell --language-tag=no list < forkortelser.txt (see attachment)


Actual Results:
Listed on standard output:

forkortelser
Dvs
eks

Expected Results:
No output, or at least
Dvs.
f.eks.

(Note the trailing periods.)


Additional Information:

The failure to recognise "forkortelser" is an unrelated problem, of course
(but I find it a bit ironic that this word is listed here.)

Oddly enough, "osv.", "e.l." and "m.a.o." were accepted. I had problems
with the latter two when checking via pspell from Balsa, though.

Note that when using aspell-no-0.1-8 from Red Hat 7.0 distribution (on a Red Hat
7.1 host), no misspellings are reported.

no updated to latest release in fc3 rawhide.
