How did you find that code? I tried to figure out what Word uses for hyphens and apostrophes, but I can't figure out how to see the raw code.

Oh, I just remembered one other thing that Word changes: elipses. It changes the three periods

...

into one symbol of some sort, which the feed doesn't like.

Tiny MCE and FCkEditor both have "paste from word" feature. TinyMCE works with S9Y 0.9 alpha.

Hmmm. I don't have the latest S9, but maybe I'll try Tiny out on Drupal and see what it does. Then if it's all I need, I'll see if I can add it on here.

Nah, for some reason the feed is fine with Word cut-n-pastes in Drupal, but S9's feeds just won't work with those characters.

Alphalogic, any chance you could go ahead and write the plug-in with what you've been given so far? Then if other posters ever get around to sharing their want lists, maybe those could be added later?
