The missing grc easteregg #23

Open snomos opened 2 years ago

[Recreated here, as it fits better. Moving issues across orgs is not possible. Original, filed by @Trondtr can be found here]

There is no easteregg of the "nuvviDspeller" type for our grammarcheckers. One might think they are not needed, since the use normally accesses the server, and whatever version problems present should be shared by server and user machines alike. But upon debugging the smn grc for the sentence

we run into the following problem: The sentence is correct, and flagged as such (= no error flag) on my command line, my MS Word, my Google Doc. For my collegue, the Google Doc version behaves as expected, whereas the MS Word version gives a false positive.

An obvious debugging tool would thus be an easteregg.

The need for an easteregg comes up in several bugs, as well as in daily use as long as update procedures are not in place.
