Sorry to whinge, but these issues (discussed in correspondence below) don't seem to have been addressed yet, at least in my set up.
JVERSION

Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25

Library: 8.01.014

Qt IDE: 1.0.20/4.8.5

Platform: Win 64

Installer: j801 beta install

InstallPath: c:/d/j801


See Marc Simpson, 31/8/13 and Ric Sherlock 1/9/13. (I see I should change my name to Mic for consistency.)


I haven't tried Marc's fix for the cursor being placed too far to the right - I had assumed something was being done via the install 'qtide' procedure.

Agreed, again, if only because it's annoying to type shift-ctrl-n and then needing to move the cursor to the right of "NB,"

I agree the current behaviour is not ideal. Haven't tested your solution
though to see how your fix changes things though.

On a similar note, currently when the cursor is located somewhere in a line in the Terminal or Editor and I hit the Home key, the cursor is moved right to the start of the line. My preference would be that instead it was moved
to just in front of the first non-whitespace character.

In the case where there are no non-whitespace characters to the left of the current cursor location, pressing the Home key would move the cursor to the start of the line. So pressing the Home key twice would ensure the cursor
was moved to the absolute start of the line

I remember a similar issue & fix being applied during the J7 beta.

After recalling input history with {Cmd,Control}-Shift-Up/Down, the
cursor ought to be placed at the end of the buffer (i.e., post
insertion). At present, the prompt may be scrolled out of view if the
previous line exceeds window width:

   i.100
   <control shift up>

To fix, `Tedit::promptreplace' should end with
`moveCursor(QTextCursor::End)'.
