Yes, definitely! Pavel offered to add a note to the announcement... The RELEASE-NOTES contains: "- On Mac OSX the modifier keys <Control> and <Option> are now treated separately. The distributed key binding for Mac OSX no longer uses the <Option> key for shortcuts with letters or numbers. The custom key bindings for <Option>/<Control> are mapped to the <Control> modifier only." This I would say a little bit shorter in the ANNOUNCE: "On Mac OSX the modifier keys <Control> and <Option> are now treated separately. The distributed key binding for Mac OSX now uses the <Control> key only for most of the commands." Please, make some better english sentences from it. > The alt+m gives an upside-down > single apostrophe (as it should), but I think the e-mail encoding messed > it up... > > Do you see the preamble bug (see previous post) or is it just my computer? Yes, but I'm not so fast to act on... I'll check soon. Stephan
