Lollll ‘dd’ with autocorrect will be a hoot


Will be much useful than now, obviously it doesn't run it for you.


How so? A potentially highly destructive command like `dd` (it can literally destroy all your local data in seconds) should be either touched with lot of care and having an idea of what you are doing, or not touched at all. Like some heavy machinery or a scalpel.


Sure, but I'm pretty sure people will still do it.


Yes, but I would not put it in the hand of a robot that might stab you with said scalpel one thousand times per second in the neck.
