Subject:    [PATCH] kernel source spellchecker
From:       Dan Kegel <dank () kegel ! com>

[Download RAW message or body]

Since the main remaining feature before release of the 2.6
kernel is fixing all the remaining spelling errors,
this patch seems appropriate.  This is against 2.4 but
should apply to other versions as well.
It's not very smart, but should help get us to our
all-important goal of 100% correctly spellt kernel source.
Todo: make it ignore names from the MAINTAINERS file,
the list of signals and syscalls, and other well-known
english words seem mostly in Webster's Posix edition;
rewrite in Perl rather than C, or add real Makefile entry.
Enjoy!
