Turn off autocorrect for BBcode #247

Open nolanw opened 11 years ago

nolanw commented 11 years ago

is there a way to get it to ignore stuff in bbcode brackets? It's trying to correct s to a, and i to I (which is fine, but unnecessary) — myron cope

In context, myron cope was talking about typing something like [i] and getting the iOS autocorrect thing popping up.

I'm fairly sure there's no way to do this, but if anyone knows of or finds one, do it!

There apparently is a way to do this! I don't know what it is though. I was just playing around with Drafts and it seems to do it.

AwfulComposeTextViewController does something similar for YOSPOSy forums and capitalization. Can probably extend/mimic that technique to fix this issue.

So this fixes at least the case of [s turning into [a. Still shows the autocorrector suggestion, though, which is kinda gross.
