Instead I find little niceties like this: I was editing an over sized tag in a way that would cause it to shrink, leaving my mouse pointer outside. But acme nicely warped the pointer so it remained in the tag and my typing wasn't redirected unexpectedly. It's a small thing, but it made me happy, and I wanted to say thanks to whomever is responsible. I'm in the mood to appreciate small things today.

Sam did it with its menus, but Acme took it much farther. I like it a lot and I appreciate your noticing. (Did you ever notice it puts it back when it's done? Error window pops up, mouse moves there; delete the window, mouse moves back.) -rob From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Message-ID: <930e983b3e01838de23e625ba7d6dec6@quanstro.net> From: erik quanstrom Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2009 23:24:01 -0400 To: 9fans@9fans.net In-Reply-To: <7359f0490908112022r3a127764nd57e39d2c5bd724@mail.gmail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: [9fans] Acme niceties Topicbox-Message-UUID: 431d3348-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 > (Did you ever notice it puts it back when it's done?

Didn't they learn utf-8? It's acmematic.
