i use notepad to save shitty ascii art in .txt format. if i wanted autocorrect and spellchecking i have like 500 apps i can use.
That’s nice of them. Does it have ads yet?
Boo, keep is simple and basic.
Ugh… Way to ruin the best IDE on Windows.
Maybe it’s just me, but I have no desire for autocorrect on the computer. I want the letters I type to be exactly the letters that are entered, and I’m perfectly capable of typing words on a full sized keyboard. It makes sense for a phone where the keyboard is small and you can’t feel the keys.
Man, I’m dyslexic and a writer, so I thought that autocorrect would be really useful.
So, there’s an autocorrect available on Linux, and it does work.
But it is way more of a pain in the ass than a help. With an on screen keyboard, doing swipe typing, I don’t need autocorrect because I have the qwerty layout memorized, and can just make the patterns that make the words, and screwups are rare enough I don’t care. So I keep it off.
But dealing with it on pc? I really thought it would help, but it’s in the way. It made things harder to process. I make less mistakes that need correcting just typing in my semi-huntnpeck way via keyboard than having the program interfering.
Like, I’m the perfect use case for autocorrect, and it isn’t worth a damn.
