This file contains FreeBSD/Unix lexicon that is used by the system
documentation. It makes a great ispell(1) personal dictionary to
supplement the standard English language dictionary, and can be used
to greatly reduce the number of false positives when spell checking
share/man/*, www/*, or doc/*

Use SYMLINKS instead of an ad hoc rule for installing words -> web2.
Don't override the install target; doing so just breaks things like
SYMLINKS.
Don't override the correct defaults for the all, clean, depend, lint
and tags targets. Don't add a null rule to the cleandepend target.

many times.
Thanks to phk for telling me the other word is kokkenmoding, an
archaeological term for a pile of oystershells and other debiris from
a stone-age household. I didn't add it to the list, however, since
none of the online dictionaries that I looked at had it in them.
Gotta find that oed lookup link :-)
/usr/share/dict/{eign,web2,propernames}. Most of the additions are
proper names, but the word 'all' is a notable exception.

My Random-House dictionary doesn't list them, and grog says (paraphrased):
SOED only accepts 'corelate's, and it just notes corelate as an
alternative (and obviously not exactly mainstream) spelling for
correlate.
(yes these spellings tripped me)
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Make /usr/share/dict/words a symbolic link to web2

as an input file]
