Hi,
I improved my tool and it catched following additional typos.
As with any big project best way to catch errors is to have automated
checks that catch them ( Other possibility would be to read everything ten
times to get error rate down but nobody wants to do it).
If you want you could add a pre-commit hook
stylepp-spellcheck --hook
that checks comments for likely typos (misspells by aspell and not
occurring in code). It uses aspell to identify them so you need to
teach aspell which words are valid.
I would like make possible to share dictionaries so teaching phase can
be done only once instead for each person but I did not found suitable
workflow yet.
