./textproc/diction, GNU version of diction and style

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.13, Package name: diction-1.13, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Diction and style are two old standard UNIX commands. Diction
identifies wordy and commonly misused phrases. Style analyses surface
characteristics of a document, including sentence length and other
readability measures.

These programs cannot help you structure a document well, but they can
help to avoid poor wording and compare the readability (not the
understandability!) of your documents with others. Both commands
support English and German documents.

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.

Log message:
Add SHA512 digests for distfiles for textproc category

	Package convertlit: missing distfile clit18src.zip
	Package php-enchant: missing distfile php-enchant/enchant-1.1.0.tgz
