;;; flyspell-and-abbrev.el --- Spell Check Configuration -*- lexical-binding: t; coding: utf-8; -*-
;; author Craig Jennings <c@cjennings.net>
;;; Commentary:
;; WORKFLOW:
;; This module provides intelligent spell checking with automatic abbreviation
;; creation to prevent repeated misspellings.
;;
;; KEYBINDINGS:
;; C-' - Main spell check interface (cj/flyspell-then-abbrev)
;; C-c f - Toggle flyspell on/off (cj/flyspell-toggle)
;; M-o - Access 'other options' during correction (save to dictionary, etc.)
;;
;; SPELL CHECKING WORKFLOW:
;; 1. Press C-' to start spell checking
;; 2. Finds the nearest misspelled word above the cursor
;; 3. Prompts for correction or allows saving to personal dictionary
;; 4. Press C-' again to move to the next misspelling
;; 5. Each correction automatically creates an abbrev for future auto-expansion
;;
;; FLYSPELL ACTIVATION:
;; Flyspell is NOT automatically enabled. You activate it manually:
;; - C-c f - Toggle flyspell on (uses smart mode detection) or off
;; - C-' - Runs flyspell-buffer then starts correction workflow
;;
;; When enabled, flyspell adapts to the buffer type:
;; - Programming modes (prog-mode): Only checks comments and strings
;; - Text modes (text-mode): Checks all text
;; - Other modes: Must enable manually with C-c f
;;
;; ABBREVIATION AUTO-EXPANSION:
;; Each spell correction creates an abbrev that auto-expands the misspelling
;; to the correct spelling when you type it in the future. This significantly
;; increases typing speed over time.
;;
;; Original idea from Artur Malabarba:
;; http://endlessparentheses.com/ispell-and-abbrev-the-perfect-auto-correct.html
;;
;; NOTES:
;; The default flyspell keybinding "C-;" is unbound in this config as it's
;; used for the custom keymap (cj/custom-keymap).
