Is "parralel" a real word in English? I think the author meant "parallel"?

I am asking this because everywhere in the README.md and even the source code itself uses "parralel", so this typo seems to be proposital. The author is either using a uncommon way to write the word parallel, is not a native speaker or there is some other reason.

A late night mistake that is mostly fixed. (and there are some other typo errors as well, will check it later on)

Thank you!

BTW, the project itself seems interesting. However it may be strange for someone to use this library because you need, for example, to do a:

    #define FBG_PARRALEL

For it to work, and for some people this typo will be infuriating or distracting. I recommend the author to fix this typo.

Someone forgot to enable ML spell check for linter. With big data trained model, linter should be able to catch this.

A simple dictionary-based spell checker would be enough. Even vim ships with one of those.

I think parent was being sarcastic

Someone do a PR to him
