The PHP manual is very big and the PHP sources change every day. To help the documentation writers's work, we have developed a couple of scripts during the last years. Below you will find a list of the scripts, as well a short explanation and usage tips for each one.

12.1. aspell.php

This script can be used to escape or unescape manual files for use with aspell. Escaping moves the contents of tags with non-English texts (like <type>, <parameter> or <function>) to the attribute aspell so the Aspell will ignore them. Unescaping is the opposite process.

File en.pws contains words not included in the Aspell dictionary but valid in the PHP manual and can be used as the personal dictionary.
