Hi,
I have hacked a version of Shout together that supports Unicode arrows.
You can get the mcz from here...
http://www.zen61439.zen.co.uk/ShoutUnicodeArrows/
This folder contains...
the hacked Shout mcz,
some screenshots -
showing how it looks with FreeSans.ttf installed as TTCFontSet
and how it looks with Arial using FreeType
a suitable unicode ttf font (FreeSans.ttf)
an install script, ShoutUnicodeArrows.st , that :-
installs the mcz,
installs FreeSans as a TextStyle, and sets it as the code font,
Sets the correct Shout preferences
To install, copy the folder contents to your default directory, and filein in
the .st file.
then open a normal Browser.
(I used a Squeak-dev-95-2 image during development).
The key sequences / hotkeys are :
unicode Leftwards Arrow is any one of :-
cmd-shift-<cursorLeft>
<-
\<cursorLeft>
_<space>
unicode Upwards Arrow is any one of :-
cmd-shift-<cursorUp>
^<space>
The only ones I personally like are cmd-shift-<cursorLeft> &
cmd-shift-<cursorUp>
Cheers,
Andy
