I strongly second this opinion, as did Mr Noyb, D Craing, J Kock, and others, and agree with all three of the above points. Like Mark, I find my typos late (if ever). Moving the insertion point between the two offending characters/words would be my preferred way to deal with the problem. I like the idea that in case of a mistake this can be easily undone by twiddling again. - Harald Mückter, WSI - ---------------------------------------------------------- Harald Mueckter Walther-Straub-Institute Nussbaumstrasse 26 D-80336 Muenchen Germany voice +49 89 5160-7211 fax +49 89 5160-7207 email mueckter@lrz.uni-muenchen.de _______________________________________________ AlphaTcl-developers mailing list AlphaTcl-developers@lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alphatcl-developers
