Incorrectly matching partial words

[patrickdepinguin]

misspell-fixer 0.5 reports a failure "carefull" on the word "carefully" .
I.e. it matches partial words, which is not correct. The word "carefully" is spelled correctly, only a separate word "carefull" is not.

The tool should only look at complete words to avoid false positives.

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this issue.
Could you please share the exact steps with me about how to reproduce this?

Here are the steps:

$ mkdir /tmp/spell
$ cd /tmp/spell
$ printf "carefully and sucessfully\nsucessfully\n" > text
$ cat text                                                               
carefully and sucessfully
sucessfully

$ docker run --rm -v (pwd):/work 'vlajos/misspell-fixer:v0.5' -fnvugRVD .    
misspell-fixer: -f Enable fast mode. (Equivalent with -P4)
misspell-fixer: -n Disable backups.
misspell-fixer: -v Enable verbose mode.
misspell-fixer: -u Enable unsafe rules.
misspell-fixer: -g Enable GB to US rules.
misspell-fixer: -R Enable rare rules.
misspell-fixer: -V Enable very-rare rules.
misspell-fixer: -D Enable rules from lintian.debian.org / spelling.
misspell-fixer: Target directories: .
misspell-fixer: Real run (-r) has not been enabled. Files will not be changed. Use -r to override this.
misspell-fixer: Your grep version is +zstd which is at least the optimal: 2.28.
misspell-fixer: Iteration 0: prefiltering.
misspell-fixer: Results of prefiltering: (filename:line:pattern)
./text:1:carefull
./text:1:sucessfully
./text:2:sucess
./text:2:sucessfully
misspell-fixer: Iteration 0: processing.
misspell-fixer: actual file: ./text
misspell-fixer: temp file: ./text.51
misspell-fixer: Iteration 0: done.

Notice two things:

• carefull flagged incorrectly, as 'carefully' is a valid word (originally reported issue)
• when sucessfully is on a line of its own (line 2), misspell-fixer flags sucess as a violation, but this doesn't happen for the first line.
