Hi all,
New editor seems to work better, I like the save-as-you-work feature.
I'll give another update later if it turns out that the scripts are
still getting stuck on the final save.
But I'm still having problems with the keybindings. This goes for any
interface using this particular full-featured text editor (including the
software I use for my mailing lists, PHPBB), not just for the FLOSS
Manuals implementation:
Normally I use Apple+leftarrow on the Mac to go to the start of a line,
and I'm very used to it. It's quite automatic, actually and I do it
without even thinking about it now.
In this editor, however, it gets passed to the browser to indicate
"Previous Page", and so the browser reloads the previous page and if I
haven't saved up to the exact moment this happens, I lose everything
I've typed. Pretty annoying!
This behavior only occurs in the text editor. If I use the same
key-combination in the search field of the main FLOSS Manuals page, for
example, the expected behavior (go to start of the line) happens.
Sorry this is a recap for Adam, but I thought maybe Snow or the others
might have an idea how to fix this.
best,
derek
