CC: to list, damn Gmail :-) Are you looking for a just a text editor, or a full-blown Word Processor? In KDE the Kate and KWrite text editors don't have AutoCorrect, but they do have a Word Completion plugin that pops up a list of suggested completions to choose from. you need to turn it on in the Configure dialog. For Word Processors, in KDE KWord has a full AutoCorrect implementation and starts way faster than OOo :-) For Gnome, I guess that AbiWord also has AutoCorrect.
