does linux have a "did you mean......" component for the command line like Google?

You know how when you type something that may be misspelled and Google 
comes back with "Did you mean this?" spelling properly what you were 
trying to search for.  Can I install a package that lets me get to the 
command I am looking for even  if I happen to mis a letter? For example 
smbpaswd vs. smbpasswd.  Big difference when trying to get the system to 
play nice in a windows network.
