Hello,

An usefull feature would be the ability to replace special
characters (such as é, č, ç by é, è,
&ccdedil;). It could be done by providing a conversion
table. This ensure a better compatibility with some
browsers.

In the same way, it would be interresting to replace
"sample" by « sample » or &
“sample ”. The "test" is a "test" is to be
understand as « test » is a
« test ».

It would also be interresting to replace ' !' by
 !' for instance.

These modifications allows to type normal characters in
the text editor but to have automatically the good (in
the french way in my sample) typography, like it is
done in LaTeX with a french option enabled.

    I still consider this feature request. The way it would be
    implemented is probably something like a tag
    <replace from="xy" to="yz"> . Then you can specify all
    your replacements in a def file.

    I'm not sure if one should use regular expressions and use
    the replacement feature for other things (e.g. replacements
    of parameters in metatags).
