Description gobnat 2002-10-15 03:33:44 UTC
I am lodging issues identified in our internal report on moving from word ->
Open Office writer.

From the report:

      (q)    No smart replace/smart selection: This is a minor thing, but it
would be nice to have the smart replace/select functionality. That is, if
inserting a word, spaces are automatically inserted around the word and, when
selecting a word, the selection is extended to the start (or end) of the word
when the selection includes part of another word. Hence, in the previous
sentence, if the selection started between the "n" and "o" in "another" and
extended to between the "w" and "o" in "word, the whole of "another" is
automatically selected.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
