If any of you use the mode and can offer feedback on the following, it'd be appreciated: In addition to handling Laurent's initial feature request (see message at bottom), I'm setting it up so that if the following string is in the DrRacket window:</div> <div>  "abcdefghi"</div><div>and you select the _def_ and press " (double quote), then it places double-quotes around the "def" with additional quotes to ensure that the other two portions of the string are still validly delimited, i.e.</div> <div>  "abc""def""ghi"</div><div><br></div><div>One question is where to put the cursor following this operation?
