Re: [Newbies] Is there a preference setting to block automatic parentheses?
Some people like this preference a lot. Others think it is horrible. This implmenentation is not the best. The one in E/OCompletion is better. I love the feature (in other editors), but hate its current behavior. If that one is better, why don't we use that? This preference is part of the low-level interface which affects the overall fidelity of the Squeak user-experience. If we are going to make any changes to this, may we please start it out in the Inbox where we can all try it and discuss it in more objective terms than love, hate, better and horrible? I see OCompletion has a head version in SqueakMap, great! So we can try it out right now and see why its better.. ___ Beginners mailing list Beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners

Re: [Newbies] Is there a preference setting to block automatic parentheses?
A better way to have, or not have, it is to use a key combination. Mathematica uses SHIFT-ALT ( , [ , or { to get (), [], or {}, otherwise you get the single character.
