Find source of word match

[Mo-Gul]

I can't find the source of a word that seems to be found by cspell. Specifically, it is about the word "programatic". If I use either of

    "language": "en",
    "language": "en-US",

it isn't marked and thus must be found in some dictionary. Is there a chance to track down how it matches and/or in which dictionary it is listed?

I already checked the en_US-large.dic and also aspell lookup where it is not listed. Thus, filing a bug there makes no sense.

There is a trace mode and trace command available in the spell checker.

Trace Mode

The trace mode will show the source of a word when hovering over it.

In this case it is not found.

Spell REPL Trace Command

The REPL trace command has a bit more options.

1. Open the Spell REPL:
   

2. trace --help to show options

3. trace programatic to show sources.
   
   In this case it is not found.

4. trace programatic --allow-compound-words
   
   In this case it is found as a compound in en_us as prog+rama+tic.

Quick test of compounding
