Version 1.11 of package Jinx has just been released in GNU ELPA. You can now find it in M-x list-packages RET.
Jinx describes itself as: ======================= Enchanted Spell Checker ======================= More at https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/jinx.html ## Summary: ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ JINX.EL - ENCHANTED SPELL CHECKER ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Jinx is a fast just-in-time spell-checker for Emacs. Jinx highlights misspelled words in the text of the visible portion of the buffer. For efficiency, Jinx highlights misspellings lazily, recognizes window boundaries and text folding, if any. For example, when unfolding or scrolling, only the newly visible part of the text is checked if it has not been checked before. Each misspelling can be corrected from a list of dictionary words presented as a completion menu. ## Recent NEWS: ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ JINX.EL - CHANGELOG ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1 Version 1.11 (2024-12-22) ═══════════════════════════ • Require Emacs 28.1. • Remove special `org-fold' code.

The command `jinx-correct' dispatches to one of those commands depending on the prefix argument. • Recommend libenchant 2.3.1 or newer. Print a message if Enchant is outdated. • Support $LANG=C and $LANG=POSIX environment variable settings. 13 Version 0.9 (2023-07-02) ═══════════════════════════ • 🪄 Make sure that Emojis are not marked as misspelled 🧙🏼♀️. • Rename `jinx-correct-next/previous' to `jinx-next/previous'. The commands can be used outside the minibuffer. • Bind `M-n' and `M-p' to `jinx-next/previous' in `jinx-overlay-map'. • Bind `M-$' to `jinx-correct' in the `jinx-overlay-map'. • Add `jinx-repeat-map'. • Rename category of Jinx overlays to `jinx-overlay'. • Rename `jinx-misspelled-map' to `jinx-overlay-map'. • Add many more language modes to `jinx-camel-modes'. 14 Version 0.8 (2023-04-28) ═══════════════════════════ • `jinx-correct': Consistently move backward to the previous misspelling.
