The auto-correction function forces anyone who want to talk about the linux kernel, to mention GNU. Because some people really want to say just "linux", auto-correcting it makes it incorrect. Which is sort of ironical.

That is why I'm suggesting to remove this function.

If you write <{GNULINUX}> once yourself, then you can write just linux, it won't be replaced...
but you're right, I'll add a check for the word kernel :)
