Once again quick responses from the list, thanks to
John Vernier, J.A Guitierrez, Chris Von Grebe and Gary
Gale for the responses.
the ksh part was the easiest...works
still trying to figure out the filename correction
from bash setup. But, feature is in bash:
http://www.gnu.org/manual/bash-2.02/text/bashref.txt
`cdspell'
If set, minor errors in the spelling of a
directory component
in a `cd' command will be corrected. The
errors checked for
are transposed characters, a missing
character, and a
character too many. If a correction is
found, the corrected
path is printed, and the command proceeds.
This option is
only used by interactive shells.
Responses:
I think you get the correction stuff in tcsh if you
put the following
line in your .tcshrc:
set correct = all
If not, I certainly have this feature with tcsh, and I
can look more
closely at my .tcshrc to see if it is something else.
Although I like
the feature in general, it can be annoying, especially
when you want
to move a file to a similar name. It always asks if
you want to move
it to itself :-)
