feat: Add expand-contractions-en package

[lewisblackburn]

This expands contractions e.g. aren't → are not .

This is useful for when writing essays, as professional writing often requires a more formal and precise language style, eliminating contractions contributes to a more polished and academic tone.

[smeech]

A nice, straightforward package of simple expansions.
No cmd, script, shell or malicious code.
Both README.md and package.yml would benefit from removing duplicates, and, ideally, sorting into alphabetical order. Let me know if you need any help.
Then it will be safe to merge.

[smeech]

I presume you're still working on this - just to let you know I am keeping an eye on it.

[lewisblackburn]

I think everything should be ready to go now, I'd be happy make any more changes. I apologise if there are any mistakes as I am still learning how to use GitHub 😅

[smeech]

I've lost track of the _manifest.yml and README.md files and can't see the contents of your package.yml. You may need to copy them from https://github.com/lewisblackburn/espanso-expand-contractions-en to your updated copy of espanso/hub, in a version folder, and submit a fresh PR with the whole set, having removed the espanso-contractions-en Submodule.

Don't worry - I've learned a lot in the last few months!

[smeech]

Thank you - we're getting there!

Would you kindly:

• Rename the package folder to expand-contractions-en/0.1.0/ as in your original PR, adding a version subfolder (see the packages already in espanso/hub), as named in _manifest.yml,
• Add a homepage: parameter to _manifest.yml even if the value is just something like: https://github.com/lewisblackburn/hub/tree/main/packages/expand-contractions-en (renamed as above), or https://github.com/lewisblackburn/hub
• Change the installation instructions in README.md to download from the Hub, i.e. match those in the docs

please?

[lewisblackburn]

Yes of course no worries, I will do that ASAP. Thanks for your patience.

[smeech]

I'm afraid you omitted a period in /0.1.0/ so it's reading /0.10/.

Can you remove the old folder and contents (without the version number), please? While I could delete the files, I might not be able to remove their folder, which may cause problems.

[lewisblackburn]

Oh okay sorry about that, one second

[lewisblackburn]

Should I add the correct folder back?

[smeech]

You may have removed the wrong one. All I can see now in the file-list is the folder and files without the version number.

We'll get there!

[smeech]

We're now back to two folders, both named /espanso-contractions-en/0.1.0/, I'm afraid. We just need one.

[smeech]

The folder needs the package name: expand-contractions-en, as in _manifest.yml. Sorry - I should have spotted that earlier.

[lewisblackburn]

I think that should have fixed it (I hope)

[smeech]

Thank you. I've gone ahead with the merge. The package can be found at https://hub.espanso.org/expand-contractions-en. espanso install expand-contractions-en works.

Well done!
