Hi all,

The preferred spelling has traditionally been knee-deep. However, several 
years ago I read that the newest Oxford English Dictionary removed the 
hyphens from a bunch of words. This suggests that kneedeep may gain 
widespread acceptance in the future. It's already in Wiktionary. So here's a 
patch to keep brltty from using the ed sign in kneedeep.

others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you 
had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise."
