vim-fat-finger
==============
A simple vim plugin that automatically corrects common misspellings and typos as you type.
## Misspellings
This plugin supports over 4,000 common misspellings, as defined in `plugin/fat-finger.vim`.
The settings in the plugin file are defined using Vim's `iabbrev` keyword, which is part of Vim's built-in
abbreviations feature. The definitions follow a format of `iabbrev`, followed by the commonly misspelled word,
and then finally the desired corrected version of misspelling.
For example:
```
iabbrev acheive achieve
iabbrev contraversy controversy
iabbrev demenor demeanor
iabbrev embarass embarrass
iabbrev lisence license
iabbrev morgage mortgage
iabbrev nightfa;; nightfall
iabbrev offred offered
iabbrev precice precise
iabbrev teh the
```
## Installation
```
git clone git@github.com:chip/vim-fat-finger.git
cp vim-fat-finger/plugin/fat-finger.vim ~/.vim/plugin/
```
## Configuration
Simply edit `~/.vim/plugin/fat-finger.vim` to suit your needs. If you don't like a specific definition, feel
free to edit it or remove it altogether.
