But please, please don't make the barbarism file names
the same as the ispell hash file names. These names
are an awful hack with no future. What happens when
we support different dictionary versions licke
british versus britishmed? What happens when we want
to use barbarisms an aspell at the same time?
The ispell names are purely historical with nothing
logical or deterministic behind them. Please just
use the straightforward language tags instead:
"ca_ES" or "ca-ES" or "ca". This way we don't even
need a table at all. Surely this makes more sense?
Andrew.
