Tags: patch


This patch fixes a typo in the documentation for Iroquoian input methods
for the Oneida endonym, propagated by copy-paste into comments,
docstrings, and the NEWS entry. The previous spelling 'Onʌyota:ká:' was
missing the third syllable and also used an idiosyncratic orthography.
There are two common orthographic variants that I've seen:
'Onʌyote’a·ká·' (common in community language programs) and
'Onyotaˀa·ká·' (used in Karin Michelson's 2002
'Oneida-English/English-Oneida Dictionary'). I opted for the former.

There is also a small fix for an incorrect input key given in one of the
input method docstrings.

Thanks, installed, and closing the bug.
