Description Vinay M R 2005-08-24 11:38:13 UTC 
Distribution/Version: FC3

1)Invoke gedit.
2)Type some text into it. Use some strings like "type5", "F12" or "mig21". 
3)Try to select those strings with double-click or try Ctrl + arrows.

Selecting a word with double-click and jumping between words via Ctrl + left or
right arrow does not work in gedit when the word contains numbers(i.e strings
like "type5", "F12" or "mig21" are not considered as a single word).
Comment 1 Paolo Borelli 2005-08-27 16:06:53 UTC 
this is not specific to gedit: word boundaries are determined by pango following
unicode rules and there is no way to override them...
