    hi,

    can you give an example what you mean?

    Sure
    In case you type lesss in terminal, you will receive prompt
    CORRECT>less (y/n/e)

    Some time it can useful. But sometime it’s even harmful, especially in scripts.

    Hmm,
    the closest I could find on that topic is the bash builtin "shopt".

    But I do believe, that the auto correct must have been set actively, i.e.: that is not enabled by default.
    (For what it´s worth: I have *never* seen that "CORRECT" message)
    You might want to check your .bash_profile and .bash_rc

    Search this for shopt for details:
    Code:
    man bash
    You must always face the curtain with a bow.
