I hope the grammar checker will catch incorrect capitalization, improper
punctuation, and misuse of the adverb 'hopefully'.

Okay I found
a couple of errors. Been testing it since you guys have committed it.
You cannot do contractions. Try typing has not, will not, does not, etc. You
can't do it. Try making the first letter capitalized.

 To
 clarify, we're deliberately not including any UI for now, and we expect 
 this to be somewhat annoying at first. The hope is that you can
 help us figure
 out what's annoying about it, and we'll try to improve the algorithm. Once 
 it's more helpful than annoying, we'll add UI to handle exceptions.

 Give it a try and let us know how it works for you!

Just type 'believe', and use your arrow keys to goto the 'i', and delete
that. And add the 'i' after the 'e' . And you will properly have

 The new dev build (3.0.182.2) now has a command line option to enable
 auto spell corrections. This feature will correct words which have
 been typed wrong due to swapping letters once by mistake - a very
 common example is typing "teh" instead of "the" - "moer" instead of
 "more" and so on.

 There are no UI support for this yet - just the command line enabler
 '--auto-spell-correct'. Please do take a look at it and tell me issues
 about it. If we are sure we want this feature, I will go ahead and
 make this a full blown Chrome feature by adding UI support (disable
 through context menu and Options menu, "Stop auto-correcting this
 word" options etc).

Great to see this live, Sid!
To
clarify, we're deliberately not including any UI for now, and we
expect this to be somewhat annoying at first. The hope is that you can
help us figure
out what's annoying about it, and we'll try to improve the algorithm.
Once it's more helpful than annoying, we'll add UI to handle
exceptions.

Give it a try and let us know how it works for you!
