Correction in m17n vi-telex.mim

[Hoàng Đức Hiếu]

Binary package hint: m17n-db

I'm using m17n-db 1.3.1-1build1 on feisty.

On line 234 of file /usr/share/m17n/vi-telex.mim, the rule is:
   ("aff" (insert "aff"))

which is contradict with the following one on line 235:
   ("AFF" (insert "AF"))

The 234 line should be corrected to:
   ("aff" (insert "af"))

On another issue, line 367 and 368 of the same file should be changed to the following to use backspace key as normal:
; (backspace
; ((BackSpace) (undo)))
)

PS: I'm not sure putting 2 issues in 1 report is recommended :)

I do confirm the correction asked for line 234.

There is only one instance of (insert "aff") in this file which really should be corrected to (insert "af").
You can find a second confirmation of this here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telex_(IME)
  " To write a tone marking key as a normal character, one has to press it twice: "herr" becomes "her". "

I do confirm the correction asked for line 367 and 368, except that semicolon (;) should be doubled.
There already is a fix proposal by Arne Goetje, see here:

I have remastered the Hardy beta LiveCD after having installed the scim-m17n package to test m17n-db bugs corrections and I do confirm that Telex is now working appropriately (no more backspace or "aff" bugs) ! So this bug can now be closed. Many thanks!
