Word deleting glitch regarding german »Sonderzeichen« äöüÄÖÜ

Post by AND51 »

Hello!

If I have to remove the last words, I use Ctrl+Back. Using this keyboard shortcut the last word will be deleted.
But this does not work correctly with äöüÄÖÜß. If one of these characters appear in a word that I want to delete, the cursor stops at these characters. I have to use Ctrl+Back several times to delete one word then.

You might have a look at my video, showing the problem. (Klick here, AVI/936 KB) Both sentences must be deleted with 3 x pressing Ctrl+Back, but the 2nd sentence contains ü and ß.

I would appreciate it, if the editor treats äöüÄÖÜß as normal characters.

for what should they be useful?
only in remarks or inside strings...
type more accurately... ;)

in my opinion they are no normal characters..
what should be next? every possible accents for french?
Kyrillian for the polish/russian?
...and remenber, there is a japanese PB-forum, too...
oh... and have a nice day.

It's also a problem with "blåbærsyltetøy".

The IDE is an editor for sourcecode. Thats why only characters that can be part of words in code
(ie variables, functions, etc. Not spechial chars only possible in Strings/Comments) are considered word characters for editing.
