[Xerte] Inserting Special Characters

[Dave Burnett]

 AND the position of the caret,
If you have the TF ID, can't you just get a charcount on button click?

Or get the text, concatenate the special and reset it?

Maybe
a global func that holds the tf id of the last tf with focus?



<pseudo>

if object with focus=TF {

last_active = TF ID

}
