<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><DIV>Hello all,</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I am new with TM (and quite new with Mac anyway) and I like it a lot! I used WinEdt for LaTeX and Matlab. It has a very nice feature: If you are typing an umlaut like ä, ü, é, etc. it writes in TeX-code \"{a},\"{u},\'{e} etc. to the tex-file, while the umlaut is still seen in the editor. The advantage of this is obvious: You don't have to care about the encoding, you can share the file easily and the spellcheck works still fine. This feature could be interesting for html as well. </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Moreover, since one like to see greek letters like "α" (UTF8: CE B1) instead of \alpha an automatic replacement in the editor (while still writing \alpha to the tex-file) would be very nice, too!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I didn't found any discussion about this topic in this forum. Is this of interest for you? Is there a solution already? I would be very pleased about this feature.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Best regards</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Matthias</DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN></SPAN> </DIV><BR></BODY></HTML>
