I think (1) context is the problem. As I wrote, my FF does it right. ...partially... because as an author I want to be able to control it in a simple way. eg: I'd like to have some rules - a) text editing must be simple - b) global setting ... for real prose text in 1 language - c) per tiddler ... eg: for documentation. It needs to be possible to create English wikitext, that describes German quotes and vice versa ------------ Global setting The global setting could be done in the ControlPanel : SmartQuotes definition table - Double quote start: x - Double quote start: y - Single ... - ------------- Per Tiddler The per-tiddler setting could be defined as a pragma \smartquotes de-DE „…“ ‚…‘ »…« ›…‹ The text would use, what's part of the keyboard. ... Different keyboards have different possibilities! eg. my German keyborad setting doesn't offer any of the above characters. So I'd use "text" as wikitext. ------- per input ??? Not sure, how this can be implemented in a sensible way. ... I personally would want at editor-toolbar button, that lists the elements from the \smartquotes setting, so they can be directly used. just some thoughts mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
