Title (remember the PiL album?)

Testing category addition to items. Thanks for the pointer, Rick.

Also trying out Pepper. Pepper is a nice text editor. I've been using TextPad for some time now, not having bothered to install vim, but this looks ready to replace it.

The encoding-decoding problem also applies to the Title field. This kind of feature is one I would characterize as "too helpful." Applications that don't even try to be user-friendly avoid being too helpful, but applications that try and fail usually are. Instead of helping, they go that extra mile.

Thanks, Mark!

Due to a long-standing bug in Radio, I am unable to include the full text of this post here, for fear of damaging your News page. Please click the item title to read this post safely.

Mark Pilgrim's RSS feed now differs markedly from what's on his site, to work around the feature in Radio Userland that annoyed me to no end last Wednesday. I'm glad that someone has characterized the bug; now if it could be fixed I'd be even happier.
