Re: [TxMt] Convert to named entity: error decoding £

Merci for pointing out how it works, but I guess I can't see the value in a converter which can't see that it has a numeric as input and do the right thing. Amp is just wrong as an output. So: request for improvement: convert commands examine their input to respond intelligently to requests to return a named entity when given a raw character or an already encoded numeric.

If you are trying to get £ you first need to "Decode numeric entities" and then "Convert to named entity"

Doing "Convert to named entity" on "£" gives "&" when I want "&pound"
