I don't recall which bash version was the default in eD 2.4, but methinks
shopt is bash 2.x. In any event, shopt -s cdspell sets the cdspell
option, which has the following effect:
cdspell If set, minor errors in the spelling of a
directory component in a cd command will be
corrected. The errors checked for are
transposed characters, a missing character,
and one character too many. If a correc
tion is found, the corrected file name is
printed, and the command proceeds. This
option is only used by interactive shells.
