Provide a path to a file or directory and let the tool replace British spellings with American equivalents in-place.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
The tool scans provided text files and replaces common British spellings with American equivalents in-place. It uses a substitution table to normalize spelling across directories or single files while preserving case.
Yes, you can normalize British to American spelling across an entire codebase by providing a directory path. The tool processes text files recursively and skips binary files and sensitive paths to ensure safe in-place edits.
Yes, in-place British to American text editing preserves case and avoids breaking identifiers or URLs. It applies case-preserving substitutions using a seed table to maintain codebase and documentation integrity.
During British to American spelling normalization, binary files are automatically skipped. The tool includes safeguards to skip unrelated paths and binary content, focusing solely on modifying text-heavy projects and documentation.
If documentation retains British spellings after a text edit, the specific variant may not exist in the tool's substitution table. The tool relies on a seed table of common British-to-American mappings to perform in-place replacements.
