I use it as a simple autocorrect mode. If i misspell a word, i run C-x a i g which will prompt me for what to expand the previous word into. I type the correct spelling, and whenever i make that mistake again, it will automatically be corrected. It's important to be careful not to set something that could be a typo for two words though, because otherwise it gets even more annoying. Luckily it's easy to update the abbrevs which are stored in ~/.config/emacs/abbrev_defs. M-x list-abbrevs is also a nice command which shows all the saved abbrevs and how many times they've been expanded. +(add-hook 'text-mode-hook #'abbrev-mode) + (use-package eldoc :delight |
