DidYouMean.el

Ask for the right file to open.

Port of EinfachToll/DidYouMean.

Why

You want to edit hello.c from the terminal. You type emacs he TAB RET expecting your shell to expand it to the right file name. Emacs opens up an empty hello. because there is a hello.h in the same folder. This package makes Emacs ask you which of these files you actually want to edit.
