Yes, but the problem is that I think the majority of users would like to edit in the x-system and view in unicode. Currently, it is not possible to do this. For example, in most internet cafes (where I do some of my editing), I want to view the text in unicode, but there's no way to type in unicode. In this old system it did not matter if people typed in x-system or unicode, it always works. Could we carry this functionality over to the new software? I know Unukorno also wants this functionality.

Jes ja, sed estas penige farigi al la programo tion fari, do mi flankenlasis gxin intertempe... mi denove restarigis gxin, eble per ioma kosto je mia menssaneco. ;) Bonvolu elprovi gxin.

Ankoaux eblas, ke oni elektu X-an _legadon_ per la preferoj, sed (denove) ne plu eblas redakti "pure" Unikode: la teksto de la nuna artikolo konvertigxas X-en en la redaktilo, kaj la Xajxoj konvertigxas Unikoden kiam konservitaj; ne forgesu do aldoni sekvan Xon kiam vi tajpas "Linux" aux "Bruxelles" a.s. T.e., plimalpli same je la antauxa vikiprogramo.

Se oni efektive deziras "pure" Unikodan redaktadon, tion mi ankaux povus reebligi.

Right, but that's a pain to get the software to do so I left it for later... I've got it stuffed back in now at perhaps some cost to my mental health. ;) Bang away at it and see if it breaks.

You can still select X viewing in the user preferences, but there's now currently no way to do "pure" Unicode editing; the text of the current article will be converted to X-system in the edit box, and the special X sequences will be converted on input, so remember to add a second X when you type "Linux" or "Bruxelles" or whatnot. Ie, pretty much like on the previous software.

If there's demand for "pure" Unicode editing, I can add that in too.
