rocm-docs-core has spell checks run on every pull request (PR) via GitHub Actions.
If a PR fails spell check, the errors must be addressed before it can be merged.
The results of a spell check is viewable in the “Checks” tab for a PR.
Types of Errors#
Spelling Mistake#
View the “Details” for a spell check and fix the misspelled words.
New words or Acronyms#
Spell check may flag errors if it does not recognize a word.
The reason could be that the word is not familiar to the dictionary used or an unfamiliar acronym.
To get spell check to recognize this word, add it to the .wordlist.txt file,
located at the root of the project (for this project, rocm-docs-core,
that would be the rocm-docs-core folder).
Special keywords#
If the word is not meant to be a dictionary word, but is still valid technical terminology, wrap the word with the tilde (`) key.
Keyword examples#
File or folder names
Commands or arguments
Code blocks
Names of executables or binaries
