    I'm new to C++ programming, and more so, new to Dev-c++. I got a problem, that really isn't a problem, but it's pissing me off more and more eacf day. I'm using Dev-C++ 4.9.7.0 on my WinXp machine. And whenever I try to type brackets [ or], the editor fires up a shortcut to "Find in Files"...  I defined other shortcut in the -->Tools-->Configure Shortcuts, with no difference. Same hapened with Dev-C++ 4.9.5.
    Look guys, Ikmow you got far better things to do, but it's getting a little annoying using copy/paste from the character map.

    Thanks!!!

    P.S wayne, Derek, ... Where do you get the patience to answer nearly all more or less dumb questions the newbies can ask, including mine? Thnx again for helping to all of us!

      that is really odd... anyway... I can't replicate it... but you should know that ascii shortcuts can be used instead of copying and pasting...

      PS. Hmmm... just remembered not everyone used dos... hold alt and hit nine and then one on the keypad then release alt for [ and do the same only with 93 for ] so thats
      alt+91 = [
      alt+93 = ]
