I will correct both + your spelling because it drives me fucking nuts when I can't find a function or variable due to it being severely misspelled

That's the Oracle way.

The Unix way: chexp.

Not gonna lie, I have no idea what chexp is supposed to mean

That never stopped a Unix programmer!

(But yeah, my comment was missing punctuation.)

Ohh! Thanks, I mean, I had already got the grammatical meaning, but I just wasn't sure what "chexp" was, I thought you were talking about some obscure Unix command... so it was just the same phrase all along, lol
