    bq. Why not having a button which allows displaying the whole text with all acronyms extended.
    bq.

    That's a very good and yet simple idea.

    Picking the acronym from a list or combobox makes sure the "spelling" is consistent.

    I'm curious to hear what Marius and the other enthousiasts think of these ideas

      How about adding i18n and l10n? I found those very strange when I did not know what they stood for (and even then). i18n is really hard to interpret as "i followed by 18 characters followed by an n" and that is hard to match to internationalization;)

      PS: l10n is for localization for those that are wondering:-)

          To make a "v2.0" of this basic acronym feature is indeed a good idea, the goal is to lower the threshold to get started (or involved) by adding some context to tribal Qt language and similar. To avoid the step of getting a hover tooltip would help I guess. Koahnig writes words of wisdom though, the pest factor must be very low.

          "Acronyms v2.0" is not planned or scheduled yet, so feel free to evolve the idea even further. Thanks!

                FYI: If you're using an older version of Internet Explorer the acronym feature is disabled.
