[de] How do I add an exception for UPPERCASE_SENTENCE_START?

1

We have a technical term iservchk in our product that is never capitalized (it’s a console command on Linux, so if you’d change it to upper case, it would no longer work). I want to allow sentences that begin with this string, but of course LanguageTool complains when a sentence starts with a lowercase letter:

www0.iserv.eu ~ # echo "iservchk ausführen" | lt -v
Expected text language: German (Germany)
Working on STDIN...

I’ve tried to add iservchk to case_rule_exceptions.txt and when that didn’t have any effect, I also tried to add a new rule to disambiguation.xml, both with action=ignore_spelling and action=immunize, but that didn’t have any effect either. Do I assume correctly that ./languagetool/languagetool-core/src/main/java/org/languagetool/rules/UppercaseSentenceStartRule.java is ignoring the immunization? Any hint what I could change in my configuration to fix this?

Yes, that’s more or less a bug. I’ve fixed it, the fix will be in the next daily snapshot and in the next release (end of this year).

Thanks!
