Subject: Re: Smart seems not the same of --smart
Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2017 10:36:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <385b120d-0fa4-e68b-084b-05b736477c53@gmail.com> (raw)

Now understand. Thanks!
Seems mine is a misplaced expectation.

Could I promote the issue to feature request?
Something like an extension called force-smart that converts every quote 
and every ... to the typographic form.
It is quite common for me to find non-typographic sign in Word documents 
due to pasting a plain text to Word.

Thanks again
