fstrcmp \*(v)

The fstrcmp project provides a library that is used to make fuzzy comparisons of strings and byte arrays, including multi-byte character strings.

This can be useful in error messages, enabling the suggestion of likely valid alternatives. In compilers, this can reduce the cascade of secondary errors. .br .br
