About:
Autocorrect is a command-line tool designed to automatically fix common typos, grammatical errors, and spacing issues in text. It leverages advanced algorithms to analyze context and improve copywriting quality, specifically handling spacing rules between CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters. This tool helps developers and writers maintain consistent, professional text in documentation, code comments, and content files.
Key Features:
  • Intelligent typo correction and grammar fixes
  • CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) spacing normalization
  • CLI tool for batch processing files
  • Support for multiple file formats (Markdown, plain text, etc.)
  • Configurable rules for custom writing styles
Use Cases:
  • Automated proofreading for technical documentation and README files
  • Standardizing text in code comments across a project
  • Cleaning up user-generated content or imported text
  • Enforcing consistent spacing in multilingual content
Alternatives:
  • vale – Vale is a more extensible linter for prose with style guides, while Autocorrect focuses on automatic fixing of typos and CJK spacing.
  • textlint – Textlint is a pluggable linter for Markdown and plain text, whereas Autocorrect prioritizes automatic correction over just linting.
