GNAT (the GNU Ada 95 compiler) does a very good job at detecting
misspellings:
$ cat t.adb
procedure T is
My_Var : Integer;
begin
My_Vra := 2;
edn T;
$ gcc -c -gnatvf t.adb
GNAT 3.14a (20010130) Copyright 1992-2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Compiling: t.adb (source file time stamp: 2001-03-28 17:36:33)
4. My_Vra := 2;
|
>>> "My_Vra" is undefined
>>> possible misspelling of "My_Var"
5. edn T;
|
>>> incorrect spelling of keyword "end"
6 lines: 3 errors

The heuristic used is hand-coded and uses context as you can see.
