textlint: Proofreader

textlint: Proofreader is a Chrome extension developed by IRIDE Monad. It is a free add-on tool that allows users to proofread their texts as they type, based on textlint rules.

textlint is a pluggable, extensible, and powerful tool for proofreading texts. This extension serves as a wrapper that enables the use of textlint directly in the browser.

Upon activating the extension, users will see red highlighting markers on the text they are typing. These markers indicate errors detected by textlint, providing users with visual cues to identify and correct mistakes.

Additionally, textlint: Proofreader offers an "Auto-Fix" feature that automatically corrects text errors. Users have the flexibility to revert any changes made by the Auto-Fix feature if they prefer.

It's important to note that while textlint: Proofreader bundles linting rules to support browser usage, not all linting rules are compatible with web browsers. Furthermore, the "Auto-Fix" feature is currently supported by only a limited number of linting rules.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
