I am a programmer, and often I have words in all lowercase, not seperated by a space or hyphen.
In some *situations OSX will sometimes change infoclass to info class for instance
*context aware I'm sure
This feature has breached my annoyance ceiling. Is there anyway to turn it off?
I enjoy autocorrect, just not the word splitting feature.
Navigate to System Preferences > Keyboard > Text > Correct Spelling Automatically (uncheck)
If you wish to leave autocorrect on, but create certain exceptions, you can alternatively leave it checked and in the same pane add, for example:
Replace: infoclass
With: infoclass
This sets up an exclusion of sorts so that autocorrect does not change it to info class
