My Emacs auto-correct is one of the oldest posts on this blog, and I still see
it pop up here and there on occasion. Last week, Norman Ramsey asked about an
improvement to that command and I figured it’s worth an update post.
As of today, the code in the post will search backwards for a typo, instead of
just correcting the current word. So you can invoke it without trouble even if
the typo happened several words ago.
