Just some code fragments, unordered. Thanks, that sounds great. I won't beat you to it, in all likelihood, but any progress you can make here is much appreciated. Maybe this could eventually be extended into checking also doc/**/*texi for similar style errors? Or perhaps, for some of them, in the entire tree? Some minor comments: > ** Don't use "behaviour" or "colour" > > grep --color=auto -nH --null -E 'behaviour|colour' NEWS I should generally catch these (and more, see commit ba0871bef1e7) in my periodic runs of codespell, but it can't hurt to have extra checks in place. Perhaps I could document how I use codespell on the Emacs sources, if that is of interest. > ** Check for "it's", it must be "it is" > > (occur "it's" nil) Do we accept "don't" and "can't"? I believe they are also frowned upon in formal writing. (And what about "hasn't", and "haven't", etc.?) > ** Check for "filename", it must be "file name" > > (occur "filename" nil) > > ** Check for "doc string", it must be "docstring" > > (occur "doc[[:space:]]+string" nil) Also: "data base" -> "database"
