 ## Customizing counsel-projectile key bindings
 The key bindings that are added when counsel-projectile-mode is turned on are determined by the variable `counsel-projectile-key-bindings`. You can set this variable, either directly or through the customize interface, to customize these key bindings. It holds an alist of `(KEY . DEF)` pairs, where KEY is either a key sequence to bind in `projectile-command-map` or a projectile command to remap in `projectile-mode-map`, and DEF is the counsel-projectile command to which KEY is remapped or bound.
 ## Customizing action lists
-The lists of available actions (including the default action) for most of the commands above are stored in custom variables. If you set one of these variables, either directly or through the through the Customize interface, the new value will be picked up the next time you invoke the corresponding commmand.

 The available actions for the various counsel-projectile commands are now customized differently:
 - The custom variable corresponding to `<command>` is now named `<command-action>` instead of `<command-actions>`.
 - This variable now stores all the available actions, including the default action, not only the extra actions.
-- It also stores the index of the default action (it is a list whose first element is this index and whose remaining elements are the availabe actions).
+- It also stores the index of the default action (it is a list whose first element is this index and whose remaining elements are the available actions).
 - This variable is now used as the value of the `:action` parameter for the command's `ivy-read` call. Hence if you set it outside the Customize interface, you no longer need to call `ivy-set-actions` afterwards. If you set extra actions through `ivy-set-actions`, they will not replace the variable's actions but will be added to them.
 
 Also, in the default action lists, the keys set for some actions have changed, mainly for the `counsel-projectile-switch-project` command. Indeed, as new actions were added to this command, the corresponding list of keys was becoming somewhat inconsistent. The new keys replicate the default projectile key bindings (for instance, the action to save all project buffers is now called with the key <kbd>S</kbd>, mimicking the default key binding <kbd>C-c p S</kbd> for the command `projectile-save-project-buffers`). When an action calls a command that has no default projectile key binding, its key is chosen among those that are not bound by projectile by default.
