TrueType ? or what it was before TrueType (what it is in core)? To put TrueType again, be sure to have the Dejavu fonts and then evaluate: | font codeFont titleFont | FreeTypeFontProvider current updateFromSystem. font := LogicalFont familyName: 'DejaVu Sans' pointSize: 10. codeFont := LogicalFont familyName: 'DejaVu Sans Mono' pointSize: 9. titleFont := LogicalFont familyName: 'DejaVu Sans' pointSize: 11. Preferences setListFontTo: font; setMenuFontTo: font; setCodeFontTo: codeFont; setButtonFontTo: font; setSystemFontTo: font; setWindowTitleFontTo: titleFont. Now what I don't know is how to come back to the fonts that were in the kernel, I mean, how to disable TrueType fonts. Someone know ?

FWIW I hate this behaviour also. A number of IDEs do it too (Eclipse, Netbeans). I always turn this behaviour off because it infuriates me.

Re: [Pharo-users] ecompletion - smart characters

by Johan Fabry

Nice trick that, I see that it is very useful. But this is not made obvious to the user, so another 'surprising' behavior, i.e. not nice. Another alternative: would it be possible to have an open workspace in the default image that documents these ecompletion behaviors (with the possibility to turn it off by a DoIt)?

Re: [Pharo-users] ecompletion - smart characters

by Johan Fabry

It's not a bug, it's just that the default behavior annoys me in that it is difficult to write a single opening character, and sometimes when you want to delete one character it deletes 2 of them (especially annoying when you editing a String with quotes included). I just would appreciate that the default behavior be something that does not surprise the user, i.e. turn it off (which is what I usually do on new images).

Hi, How to type a single item: - Type " => "" - Press DEL => " There is indeed an improvement that could be made. In TextMate once you move the cursor, the deletion of a start character trigger no longer deletes the other one. That could indeed be useful in Pharo as well.
