## What is this?

This package is a [unified][] ([retext][]) plugin to check for redundant
acronyms (such as `ATM machine` to `ATM`).

> 🙂 **Fun fact**: this is called [`RAS syndrome`][wiki-ras] (`redundant acronym
> syndrome syndrome`).

## When should I use this?

You can opt-into this plugin when you’re dealing with content that might contain
grammar mistakes, and have authors that can fix that content.

## Install

This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:

```sh
npm install retext-redundant-acronyms
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import retextRedundantAcronyms from 'https://esm.sh/retext-redundant-acronyms@5'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html

import retextRedundantAcronyms from 'https://esm.sh/retext-redundant-acronyms@5?bundle'

```

## Use

Say our document `example.txt` contains:

```txt
Where can I find an ATM machine?
```

…and our module `example.js` contains:

```js
import retextEnglish from 'retext-english'
import retextRedundantAcronyms from 'retext-redundant-acronyms'
import retextStringify from 'retext-stringify'
import {read} from 'to-vfile'
import {unified} from 'unified'
import {reporter} from 'vfile-reporter'

const file = await unified()
.use(retextEnglish)
.use(retextRedundantAcronyms)
.use(retextStringify)
.process(await read('example.txt'))

console.error(reporter(file))
```

…then running `node example.js` yields:

```text
example.txt
1:21-1:32 warning Unexpected redundant `ATM machine`, expected `ATM` atm retext-redundant-acronyms

âš  1 warning
```

## API

This package exports no identifiers.
The default export is
[`retextRedundantAcronyms`][api-retext-redundant-acronyms].

### `unified().use(retextRedundantAcronyms)`

Check for redundant acronyms (such as `ATM machine` to `ATM`).

###### Parameters

There are no parameters.

###### Returns

Transform ([`Transformer`][unified-transformer]).

## Messages

Each message is emitted as a [`VFileMessage`][vfile-message] on `file`, with
`source` set to `'retext-redundant-acronyms'`, `ruleId` to the lowercase
acronym, `actual` to the unexpected phrase, and `expected` to suggestions.

## Types

This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports no additional types.

## Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
`retext-redundant-acronyms@^5`, compatible with Node.js 16.
