[gnu.bash.bug] Spelling Correction on cd

Lindsay.Marshall@newcastle.ac.uk (Lindsay F. Marshall) (01/22/90)

The version of the shell that came with UNIX V8 had a spelling
correction feature on the cd command. This was VERY useful indeed and
I was wondering if we could get something like this added to bash?

The SCO Xenix C shell has this also.
