I posted the same question a few days ago...its strange that nobody seems to know. This would be a great thing to put in the faqs because it has been asked a lot the last ten years (from what I can tell on Google).
If you figure it out please post back! I looked through the source code some and did not see anything obvious. Later on the summer I plan on trying to roll up my sleeves and figure it out. I really want to have underscores be recognized as part of the word for my project. -Jeff On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 11:52 AM, Damien Radtke <[email protected]>wrote: > GTK programs like gedit and Tomboy use numbers and letters to divide > between words, e.g. hitting Ctrl+Backspace on abc123 will just delete the > 123.
