Re: Contractions in the English PHP Documentation and supporting scripts/files.

No way!!!! We cannot start breaking translators' work. Anyway, what's the problem with contractions? When I studied English (British) I learned that contractions weren't so formal, but they aren't wrong per se. Any English native speaker correct me if I'm wrong. But thanks for your offer, Richard. Nuno P.S.: offtopic: Richard: I cannot fix your bug with xchm manual because my laptop got broken, unless you can send me the index.html file before processing by the scripts, so that I can try to tune the regex. ----- Original Message -----

OOI, should all contractions be removed? I did a quick check on the entire phpdoc/en directory. Looking for aren't, can't, shouldn't, won't and wouldn't. Found 167 occurrences. Increased that to the entire phpdoc directory and got 362. I can easily correct the phpdoc/en ones and provide a patch. Should I? And what about the other files Regards, Richard Quadling.
