![]() I realize I mistyped it, so I hit flyspell-auto-correct-word. In any case, Hunspell still isn't very good at guessing which word I mean. (Again I write only prose, no code.) I'm not sure if it's better. I switched from aspell to hunspell because I read that it had better spellcheck for English words. I need a better algorithm-ideally, an intelligent algorithm based on morphology and word distance. After all these years, I've realized that abbrev-mode is never going to learn all my typos. I'm aware that I can do what this blog post recommends and direct abbrev-mode to "learn" my corrections by adding them to the abbrev list and "sleep easier at night knowing I'll never see that mistake again (thanks to abbrev)." But I've been doing exactly this for 4 years, adding dozens of new typos my abbrev-list every day, and I still make a hundred new typos every day that are new and don't get corrected. What's so hard about automatically assuming that if I type onlyw I always want it corrected to only? I wish there were a way to get Emacs to automatically correct typos, without being prompted, as OSX does.
