Description dalloliogm 2007-08-07 16:48:18 UTC 
In science organisms' names are usually in italized letters.

For example, it is more correct to write:
- [i]C.neoformans[/i] 
that
- C.neoformans

I was trying to use the auto-correct function to do this, auto-changing every
instance of C.neoformans (I'm writing a text on it) with the italized form, but
it seems there is no way.

I also believe that a similar function (auto-formatting) would be useful for
other tasks.

Reassigned to requirements.

Just added me to the cc-list.

I have a more broader concept about the auto-replacement list and will someday
file a feature request.
