Saluton!

I'm not sure how many Esperanto text editors there are out there, but I made an online/offline one for my own amusement lango.gif

Nice job! Works very well!
If you don't mind me adding a suggestion:
Perhaps (with O = letter than can have a hat),
Ox = Hatted letter
Oxx = Letter with x after it (e.g. Linux, CXZ (a type of mac porting wrapper for windows applications (portingteam.com))
Oxxx = Hatted letted with x after it (Linŭx)

And after that I honestly can't think of any possible improvement to the core function of the utility!

Thanks ceigered, I forgot about the use of foreign words in the editor.
Hmmm... I might have to try another approach as the way I've coded it, changes the behaviour of the x character straight away.
There is a way you can cheat it for now though. Just type Linu x and then go back and delete the space lango.gif I'll throw it around my mind the next few days and see what happens.

For now I'm just looking at another bug I've just discovered. If you navigate back and change a letter to an accented one, the cursor jumps to the last character of your text after editing ploro.gif

If you are interested, I'm now using a Greasemonkey script to write my accented Esperanto characters.

It takes care of the words like 'Linux' too -- just like you suggested.

Haha I noticed the Linu x (then delete space) trick, I guess if you want to avoid changing the code, all you have to do is write a little note there (I assumed that the script took all instances of "G/C/J" etc and "x" typed without break and mashed them together, and that you could then make it that all instances of a hatted letter and x could be converted back or something similar).

Unfortunately I can't understand the code (or can only very briefly grasp a bit of it), I only ever did very basic coding in high school, so I can't be helpful in any way other than being an end user tester rido.gif
