I’m playing with yet another MT plug-in, Smarty Pants<\/a>, which automagically displays blog posts with curly (“smart,” or typographer’s) quotes, em-dashes, and elipses. It doesn’t mess with the underlying text, but it should make things … nicer. You can choose some — or all — of the above to display nicely. It makes cutting\/pasting from my blog to others a bit more difficult, depending on the editor\/browser you have, but <\/p>\n

I definitely have to get this implemented on my novel blog, if it works.<\/p>\n
