@drdrang This is why I argued @gruber was wrong — not because they look better (or worse) æsthetically, but b/c you can’t tell them apart.

@tantramar @gruber Yeah, I read his posts on that but didn’t pay much attention because I wasn’t using the beta.

@drdrang Worse, there’s a history of putting them in reverse order in the keyboard UI, and I can’t tell if they’ve changed it. @gruber

@tantramar @drdrang The curling of quotes should be handled by software, not the typist.

@gruber @tantramar Generally, yes, but I needed a leading apostrophe: ’70s. The smart quotes algorithm doesn’t work for that case: ‘70s.

@drdrang @tantramar My SmartyPants algorithm gets that right, though.

@drdrang What finally clicked for me is looking for the slight taper. But I still have to focus to get it right. The new shift key.

@drbarnard Yes, very slight. https://twitter.com/drdrang/status/645045355793387520 …

Dr. Drang added,

@drbarnard @drdrang That should be reported as a bug.

@gruber @drbarnard Looking at my wife’s iPad (still running iOS 7), the order is the same: closing before opening. So it’s an old bug.

@drdrang @gruber An old bug that mattered much less when quotes were curly. I’ll submit a radar tomorrow.

@drdrang woah - which keyboard replacement is it?

@philgpearson ?? It’s not a replacement, it’s the iOS 9 keyboard.
