Sorry - It was not my intention to annoy you ! But it's true. Nobody can understand why a so easy task wont be fixed in time. The problem behind: there are ~50-60 developers on OOo. A "normal" developer has ~ 200-300 issue in it's intray. Some developers (mostly project or co leads) has more then 500 issues. And believe me - all of them are important enough to be fixed asap. On the other side - the day has 24 hours only :-) The problem with these task is - it does not have a high prio (compared with other tasks). E.g. vista support, crashes etcpp are more important - sorry. So these task wont be fixed within an OOo 2.x timeframe ... excepting somehwere of the community will be able to fix it. What has to be done to fix this task realy ? The special characters dialog has to be rewritten. It has to show the set of special characters and must provide the possibility to define shortcuts there directly. If you know somewhere which is able to write a new VCL dialog in C++ - tell me its name. I will give you all support I can give (CVS handling, QA step etcpp). Your question regarding "extension development" ... You should try these: "http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions_Packager";.
