There is a common spelling mistake in the Mozilla source -- 'depricated' is used
instead of 'deprecated'.
confirming.

Does this patch fix all occurences? If it does - then people might bother to
give it a quick review.

Also, it's convention to attach "diff -u" output, 
which is a bit easier for humans to read.

Summary: Spelling mistake - deprecated, not depricated → Common source comments spelling mistake - deprecated, not depricated
I attached a new patch in unified diff format.

Yes, this patch does fix all the instances of the bug in the current CVS sources
(I searched using `grep`).

Thanks for the suggestions.
scott, I thought you'd like this one.

Careless greps yield 11 files (14 changes) in patch.
perhaps 22 (32 occurrences) in the mozilla tree?

warnings: security/nss is locked, js might have special rules.

general thought: when this is checked in, should we post to npm.<somethings> 
reminding people to correctly spell this word?

I wonder if we should teach lxr about deprecated :-)

I'd give an r= but i think i'll wait for other comments...

WRT: additional files: Woops, I must have missed some (does 'make -f client
checkout' not checkout the entire tree?). I'll check that and upload a new patch
when I get a chance (or else someone else can, it's not exactly rocket science
;-) ).

Yeah, posting to n.p.m.? would probably be a good idea but I dunno which group
would be the best.

Thanks for the feedback.

I sent the following to the reporter a whlie ago, i'm reproducing it here 
because someone asked me to address this bug. unfortunately, i'm typing 
blindly, so i'm not going to make any edits, just paste:

it does not.  some parts of the tree (eg webtools) aren't necessary to mozilla 
browser development.

but it's so much fun

hopefully someone will have ideas.

I just tried searching for depricated using LXR.  There are a zillion occurences
of MWJavaDoc_Proj_Depricated in macbuild xml files.  Is it possible to do a
global replace in Mozilla source replacing depricated with deprecated (since
there are _so_ many occurences?
