Personally, I don't want my typos corrected when I enter commands. I prefer the negative reinforcement to encourage fewer errors. I also don't mind an occasional error.

Not hatin. Just wondering if I'm alone.

You probably aren't alone, since commands that punish you when you mistype exist. Check out sl[0] or gti[1].

I'm the same, though I create tiny aliases for commonly typed commands. gp = "git pull", and so on.

It's not only commands. My spelling skills took a dive, as google got better and better in guessing what I actually want to search for.

Can you disable that feature somewhere ? The suggestion is good, but automatically doing the corrected query is not!
