Constantly fixing curly quotes in MT4 posts
I'm using MT4 on my company web site and have trouble with apostrophes, dashes and the like when I cut and paste - I have to remove curly quotes with straight ones, same with other items.
Has this been fixed in subsequent versions? If not, when will you fix it? Thanks!

Inappropriate?Movable Type 4.0 folded into the main a product a plugin called "Naughty Word Characters." This plugin/feature will automatically replace MS Word smart quotes and so forth with valid HTML characters. A screenshot below shows you what you should look for on the Entry Preferences area of MT.
I’m thinking this will help.

Here is the screenshot I was telling you about.... -
I'm using v. 4.01 and have 4 categories to choose from: create, manage, preferences and tools. I don't see entry preferences in any of the 4 and see no mention of it in the documentation. Know where it is? -
Inappropriate?From the Preferences menu select "General". Then on the resulting page, select "Entry" from the left hand menu.
