Description
I'm encountering an issue whereby the TypeScript validation is detecting additional characters that don't exist in the file. I've encountered this a few times within a couple of different files:
Cannot find name 'Stringg'. Did you mean 'String'?
If I attempt to re-save the file this doesn't update as there haven't actually been any changes. If I load in a different editor and save then Sublime re-loads the file and correct the incorrect error. Additionally if I make a superfluous change and re-save the error goes away. But it's very annoying :(
