#!/usr/bin/env bash # A simple script for correcting the spelling of a word. Uses (and requires) fzf # to select the correct word. This output can be piped to something like dict # # Usage: spell mispeling # Example: dict $(spell mispeling) result=$(echo "$@" | aspell -a | tail -n-2) if [[ "$result" == '*' ]]; then echo "$@" else if ! command -v 'fzf' >/dev/null; then >&2 echo "fzf not installed" exit 1 fi words=$(echo "$result" | sed 's/[:,] /\n/g' | tail -n +2) if (( $(wc -l <<< "$words") > 1 )); then fzf <<< "$words" else echo "$words" fi fi
