Repetetive Typos

[Bijesh]

I frequently hit 'l' instead of ';' at the end of a line and then hit enter, so the intellisense picks up the first symbol starting with l and inserts it there..:)

I hate when I do this for a string value and then I have to figure out where hte non matching string occurs as the eyes ignore the typo and I can't figure what the frig is going on!!

retrun and teh are the commonest ones I do. The worst bit is when you get it wrong, delete it and then proceed to get it wrong again. At least I'm consistently defective.

Weird - me too

I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)

varialbe _and_ I very often put to second letter of a word whose first letter is upper case, upper case as well. LIke that.

Yes, I always type the word teh as the. :-D

Just follow the idea in the WTF post from a while back. #define retrun return #define flase false

Yes, and Intellisense really exacerbates it. I cannot type an 'i' after a 'pr'. Every single time I try and declare a private, I get kicked into a protected.

Added: I just remembered my worst: Hitting 5 instead of F5 to debug / run a query. This pops a sneaky little 5 into the code, so the correctly hit F5 fails.

[Brady Kelly]

Oh, I do that fairly often as well.

You should never have ever write 'private' in .NET, its implicit where applicable.

I always type 'A' capitalized if it follows a (correctly)capitalized one, e.g.: W**A**rning. Moreover I quite often type **you** insted of your. Moreover I'm never able to close HTML TAGS because **7** doesn't make the job. Moreover... :)

I'm an anal stickler for consistency. I prefer to have modifiers in all my declarations.

That's really language specific. IIRC, with VB.NET public is implicit.
