Bug: failing to detect non-Latinic alphabets as not English #254

Open wadsaek opened 3 weeks ago

As far as i know, Harper checks whether a piece of text is likely to be English, and it fails when seeing Ukrainian. I'm using harper 0.12.0 from nixpkgs

There is not yet a release of Harper that does this. The functionality exists in master but not in any official binary releases. Right now, I'm waiting on Mason to pick up changes before pushing out anything new.

That said, once it does get pushed out. I'll throw an update here.
