Once while adding a begin/end pair the editor grabbed an `end' for me and put it where I needed my `end', I forgot I had not typed my own `end'. By the time I got to compiling I didn't realize that that was why the compiler was complaining. After reading Rich's recent explaination about why the editor behaves the way it does, I appreciate better not only that it would be difficult to change, but that it is not at all clear exactly how it should be changed. I will say that the editor should support arrow keys, option arrow keys, command arrow keys, etc. All the applicable User Interface Guidelines stuff. That would be easier to fix than the pretty printing and I think more important. (I think I heard Rich say at MacWorld that the LSP 2.0 editor does NOT do arrow keys) Kent Borg kent@lloyd.uucp or hscfvax!lloyd!kent
