I _told_ you guys during the beta cycle that I wasn't going to be the only
person to bitch about this annoying behaviour. ;-)
If I select a word and E'rage selects the space after it and I begin to
type, E'rage should stick in the extra space automatically like Word does
when I have the "Smart Cut & Paste" selected in the prefs. If I don't have
it selected in the prefs, E'rage (and Word for that matter) should conform
to the HIG standard and just select the word I double-clicked. I maintained
this during the beta cycle and it is good to see others in concurrence.
Please fix it for the next release. :-)
