Subject: bug#7732: ispell-buffer always gives bogus (0) and (1) choices
Date: Sat, 25 Dec 2010 09:55:36 +0800

Why can't i/flyspell get the order correctly?

$ cat file
transfered
extention
$ ispell file

 0: extension
 1: extent ion
 2: extent-ion

Whereas ispell-buffer always has these bogus (0) and (1) choices:

$ LANG=C LC_ALL=C HOME=/tmp emacs -nw file
M-x ispell-buffer

Affix rules generate and capitalize this word as shown below:
        transfer+ed
Use option `i' to accept this spelling and put it in your private dictionary.(0) transfer ed
(1) transfer-ed  (2) transferred  (3) transferee  (4) transferees  (5) transformed  (6) transversed
(7) transferee's

(0) extent ion  (1) extent-ion  (2) extension  (3) extenuation  (4) extensions  (5) extinction
(6) extortion  (7) extending  (8) extension's  (9) extensional  (:) extenuation's

By the way, why does
$ spell file #and ispell too
not say anything about 'transfered', but in emacs ispell does?
P.S.,
$ dict transfered
No definitions found for "transfered", perhaps you mean:
gcide:  Transferred  Transferee
stardic:  transferred  transferee
xdict:  transferred  transferee
