Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice 4.1.2 and Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)

Hi :)
Well found!!

Thanks for sharing that fix.  it's a bit weird to have something like that
enabled by default but i guess it is quite useful for a lot of people.
Personally i do all my wiki-editing either directly in the page's built-in
editor but occasionally copy&paste into GEdit or something.  Word made me
suspicious of using a word-processor for that sort of thing and i've never
tried Writer for it.
Regards from
Tom :)
