The new and improved GNU aspell happpens to be almost 100% source-compatible with pspell, in fact, no changes to php source are necessary to use it. I am against creating a yet-another config option. We've got a few of those already.
I have no problem with nuking aspell and placing a dummy entry in the docs (akin to www.php.net/delete) telling people to use pspell, because, as far as PHP is concerned, it's the same thing, if that's ok with everyone else. But I don't see a good reason for an alias where you don't need one.
just my 2 kopecks :)

Agreed, but there's one problem: The pspell as you know and love it, is now named "GNU Aspell 0.52". The pspell extension must be used, to build with GNU Aspell - the API has been kept as an 'alias' for this purpose. So I vote for: --with-aspell -> /dev/null --with-gnu-aspell -> AC_ARG_WITH alias for --with-pspell - nothing more. No seperate directory, nor renaming or aliasing of functions.

Any objections? Comments are highly welcome.Hi, You're right. aspell is a survival of an antiquated tradition. pspell is much better. So /dev/null sounds a great place for antiques ;-) DJ Anubis -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.phpMet vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards, Webmaster IDG.nl Melvyn Sopacua <@Logan> I spent a minute looking at my own code by accident. <@Logan> I was thinking "What the hell is this guy doing?"
