   Kees van Eeten to All   
   Extension of minispellchecker in fts5.c   
   03 Feb 14 16:56:18   
   
   Hello All!   
      
     Recently in converting from all zero's to -Unpublished- an error   
     was made, that resulted in a Host entry being tagged as an error   
     and the relvant net to be merged with the forgoing net in the nodelist.   
      
     This was caused by a homan error, where the trailing dash was omitted.   
     Apparently this spooked the Nethost or his RC, and the old notation   
     with all zero's was restored for the netsegment.   
      
     In the makenl_ng sourcefile fts5.c there is a small section, that   
     corrects the way Unpublished is written. The change is from any combination   
     of lower and uppercase characters to just the first character being in   
     uppercase.   
      
     I would like to propose that this spellchecker section is extended to   
     correct a missing dash at the start and at the end of Unpublished as well.   
     This to correct human error, that can have significant impact on the   
     nodelist.
