I made the same mistake. If you read carefully you will see that the
-s option does not remove the word from the hash-file but from the
word list.
e.g.
I want to remove a word "toegangklik" which is spelled wrongly from
the hash file. So I put it in a word list file named "fout" with
another misspelled word just to check: "toegangklk" and did
sudo munchlist -s /usr/lib/ispell/afrikaans.hash fout
with the following output.
toegangklk
cat fout produces:
toegangklk
The word I wanted removed from the hash file was removed from the file
"fout" and not from the hash file.
I want do do it the other way round.
