Re: Renaming AlphaCocoa

[Bernard D. <bde...@or...>]

Hi Wulf,

the difficulty with the smart superscripts is that it is not possible to create a binding with the circumflex accent on a german or a french keyboard because the circumflex is a dead key. There is no such problem an a US keyboard.
Nevertheless I think I have found a solution using the characterInsertedHook and it looks like it should work on any keyboard. On a keyboard where the ^ key is a dead key, I have to type the ^ key followed by a space and then I get the expected ^{}•. This will be in the next release.

cheers,
Bernard

The goal of this project was to provide a reincarnation of the original text editor and old-time users always refer to it under this name. I think this will also facilitate its promotion in the future.
