Autocorrect: Make multiple spacebars removal more sensitive
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:39:35 UTC
Another option for Bad Document Correction Tool. The option should detect and remove multiple spacebars in text. 1, If there are more than 2 spacebars together at the beginning of explicit line (previous line was ended by line break), user probably misused spacebars to create TAB-like start of the line. The multiple spacebars should be replaced with single TAB. 2, If there are more than 2 spacebars together, they could mean, that user misused the spacebar to do the line break (pressed spacebar many times to get to the beginning of next line). They should be replaced with single line break. 3, If after previous steps remain some places with 2 spacebars together, they probably can be safely replaced by single spacebar.
4, The point 2 should not apply when the line, where the multiple spacebars are, is a single line (the line dosen't leak to multiple lines of text and is ended by line break) and before the line there is a line break too. This could mean that the user wanted to create TAB-like table. The every group of spacebars could be replaced by single TAB.
