patch 7.4.2263
Problem: :filter does not work for many commands. Can only get matching
messages.
Solution: Make :filter work for :command, :map, :list, :number and :print.
Make ":filter!" show non-matching lines.

| 391 | 5 COPYRIGHT |
| 236 | 6 |
| 7 The files used as input for the spell files come from the OpenOffice.org spell | |
| 8 files. Most of them go under the LGPL or a similar license. | |
| 9 | |
| 388 | 10 Copyright notices for specific languages are in README_??.txt. Note that the |
| 11 files for different regions are merged, both to save space and to make it | |
| 12 possible to highlight words for another region different from bad words. | |
| 391 | 13 |
| 536 | 14 Most of the soundslike mappings come from Aspell ??_phonet.dat files: |
| 15 ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/dict/. Most go under the GPL or LGPL copyright. | |
| 16 | |

| 18 GENERATING .SPL FILES | |
| 19 | |
| 20 This involves downloading the files from the OpenOffice.org server, applying a | |
| 21 patch and running Vim to generate the .spl file. To do this all in one go use | |
| 22 the Aap program (www.a-a-p.org). It's simple to install, it only requires | |
| 23 Python. | |

| 391 | 30 You can also do it manually: |
| 31 1. Fetch the right spell file from: | |
| 32 http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries | |
| 33 | |
| 34 2. Unzip the archive: | |
| 35 unzip LL_RR.zip | |
| 36 | |
| 37 3. Apply the patch: | |
| 38 patch < LL_RR.diff | |
| 39 | |
| 40 4. If the language has multiple regions do the above for each region. E.g., | |
| 41 for English there are five regions: US, CA, AU, NZ and GB. | |
| 42 | |
| 43 5. Run Vim and execute ":mkspell". Make sure you do this with the correct | |
| 44 locale, that influences the upper/lower case letters and word characters. | |
| 45 On Unix it's something like: | |
| 46 env LANG=en_US.UTF-8 vim | |
| 47 mkspell! en en_US en_AU en_CA en_GB en_NZ | |
| 48 | |
| 49 6. Repeat step 5 for other locales. For English you could generate a spell | |
| 50 file for latin1, utf-8 and ASCII. ASCII only makes sense for languages | |
| 51 that have very few words with non-ASCII letters. | |
| 52 | |
| 53 Now you understand why I prefer using the Aap recipe :-). | |
| 54 | |
| 55 | |
| 56 MAINTAINING A LANGUAGE | |
| 57 | |
| 58 Every language should have a maintainer. His tasks are to track the changes | |
| 59 in the OpenOffice.org spell files and make updated patches. Words that | |
| 60 haven't been added/removed from the OpenOffice lists can also be handled by | |
| 61 the patches. | |
| 62 | |
| 63 It is important to keep the version of the .dic and .aff files that you | |
| 64 started with. When OpenOffice brings out new versions of these files you can | |
| 65 find out what changed and take over these changes in your patch. When there | |
| 66 are very many changes you can do it the other way around: re-apply the changes | |
| 67 for Vim to the new versions of the .dic and .aff files. | |
| 68 | |
| 69 This procedure should work well: | |
| 70 | |
| 71 1. Obtain the zip archive with the .aff and .dic files. Unpack it as | |
| 72 explained above and copy (don't rename!) the .aff and .dic files to | |
| 73 .orig.aff and .orig.dic. Using the Aap recipe should work, it will make | |
| 74 the copies for you. | |
| 75 | |
| 76 2. Tweak the .aff and .dic files to generate the perfect .spl file. Don't | |
| 77 change too much, the OpenOffice people are not stupid. However, you may | |
| 78 want to remove obvious mistakes. And remove single-letter words that | |
| 79 aren't really words, they mess up the suggestions (English has this | |
| 2034 | 80 problem). You can use the "fixdup.vim" Vim script to find duplicate words. |
| 391 | 81 |
| 82 3. Make the diff file. "aap diff" will do this for you. If a diff would be | |
| 83 too big you might consider writing a Vim script to do systematic changes. | |
| 84 Do check that someone else can reproduce building the spell file. Send the | |
| 85 result to Bram for inclusion in the distribution. Bram will generate the | |
| 86 .spl file and upload it to the ftp server (if he can't generate it you will | |
| 87 have to send him the .spl file too). | |
| 88 | |
| 89 4. When OpenOffice makes a new zip file available you need to update the | |
| 90 patch. "aap check" should do most of the work for you: if there are | |
| 91 changes the .new.dic and .new.aff files will appear. You can now figure | |
| 92 out the differences with .orig.dic and .orig.aff, adjust the .dic and .aff | |
| 93 files and finally move the .new.dic to .orig.dic and .new.aff to .orig.aff. | |
| 94 | |
| 95 5. Repeat step 4. regularly. | |
