How do I enter leading spaces if I want? I'd like to be able to enter *any* character in any part of the tag name. Some questions: * Can the user uses quotes to enter any character, for ex " word ". Alternatively the space could be escaped with a char, for ex \ * How can the user use quotes, is there an escape char, for ex: my tag with a \" * Same question for entering the tag separator character. For ex if comma is the separator, can I enter: tag with \, in the name Thanks -Vincent >>> * tags' case is saved but case is ignored when comparing two tags (once >>> you defined a tag "news" you can't define a new tag "News"; the existing >>> tag is reused; tag's case is used only for display) >> > >> If we don't consider case I'm not sure we should use display using the first >> tag entered.
