Bug - God's blessing obliterated!

Mike Binks

So far so good...

Then the forces of darkness strike...

Perhaps I should have taken 'God's blessing' while it could still be found?

Strangely the Lord's prayer seems to survive the onslaught of demons....

Is it something about the character of the apostrophe?

(I always knew character was important)

Perhaps though even bad characters need to accommodated?

Not a Proclaim user here, but from your screenshot it seems you input a "straight" apostrophe character, whereas all the suggestions listed in your first screenshot use a "typographical" (slightly curved like a comma) apostrophe. This is a different character - there surely is a way to input the latter, such as typing ALT-0146 as per wikipedia. Of course, it would be better if Proclaim just converted that behind the scenes.

I had come to that conclusion myself.

That is a way of which I am aware but, even so, am unlikely ever to resort.

I heartily agree with your last sentence.

Thanks for the feedback Mike. I think we could normalize apostrophes to prevent this confusion in the future.

That'd be great Scott. I’m sure we'd all ’preciate that.

did you purposely alternate straight and curly quotes?
