[squeak-dev] When did it become a good idea for selected text to be enclosed by () instead of replaced by 9 ?

Hmm... it should be sufficient to check for the character code for "(" ... but I suppose there are some hick-ups with the key codes?

Best,

Well, for the US/GB layout, I would expect that. :-)

Old thread, but still up to date. When would you ever expect the 9 key do add
brackets? I struggle with it every day.

What would be wrong with just removing this 9? Or at least introducing a new
preference for that (TextEditor>>#useDigitsToEncloseSelection)?
