Primarily BBEdit is a text editor aimed as a tool for people writing
code so it follows to have a spell checker that tries to parse something
like:

`:dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.3.0"]
                 [org.jclouds/jclouds "1.0" :classifier "jdk15"]
                 [net.sf.ehcache/ehcache "2.3.1" :type "pom"]
                 [log4j "1.2.15" :exclusions [javax.mail/mail
                                              javax.jms/jms
                                              com.sun.jdmk/jmxtools
                                              com.sun.jmx/jmxri]]]`

or:

`var git = require( '../' );

git.repo( '../.git', function( err, repo ) {
  if( err ) { throw new Error( err ); }

  repo.commit( '59b20b8d5c6ff8d09518454d4dd8b7b30f095ab5', function(
err, commit ) {
    if( err ) { throw new Error( err ); }

    var history = commit.history();
    history.on( 'commit', function() {
      //console.log(arguments);
    });`

as you're writing it & attempting auto-corrections would be unfeasible &
counter productive in my opinion.

I suspect that in the implementation of such a feature, the cons may
very well outweigh the pros for barebones but that, of course, is just
my opinion as a customer so take it with a very large pinch of salt :-)

Cheers,

  Phil...
