Oh, I didn't catch that change.

The docs still say .pwli:

  Each AWLI has the the following name: 

     «language»[_«region>][-«jargon»][-«size»]-«module».pwli


But, now after checking I see that it's not using my .pwli file.

See, with .33 I was doing something like this:

   aspell --lang=english create master ./dict < word_list

Then adding the full path to ./dict in a file named:

   en-american-test-aspell.pwli

And then setting:

    'add-word-list-path'=> './',
    'language-tag'      => 'en',
    'spelling'          => 'american',
    'jargon'            => 'test',

That no longer works with 0.50.x.  Now I just set master and all is well.


Thanks,
