Automatic correction
For all commands, paxy will automatically correct typos and abbreviations. For example, imagine a scenario where bash isn't installed, but sh is. paxy remove bash will provide you with a prompt: "Did you mean 'sh'? [Y/n]". If you answer "Y", paxy will remove sh instead.
Warning: please don't remove sh. That is a horrible idea.
