I just picked up yet another marvelous borrowed word: teekauto.

(I need to learn how to set up categories. I probably should have done it a long time ago, and the longer I wait, the more of a pain it's going to be if I want to do it retroactively.)

1 Well, unless Pixy's managed to fix it, I never could get retroactive categories working right. I could technically "move" a post into a category, but when you filtered for that category, that post still wouldn't show up in the list. Only those post assgined to a category from the start woudl appear.

2 That sounds like something he needs to work on.

3 Yeah, I should take another look at that...

Yargh.  Setting the categories individually works; using the Add to/Move to on entries without pre-existing categories doesn't.  It is supposed to.  Fix fix...

4 Aargh.  Found it.  Will be fixed in the next update.

5 You probably should have spelled it as "teikauto" rather than "teekauto."

6 I spelled it the way they said it.

7 I hate the word teikauto because it's a foreign loanword that replaces a perfectly good Japanese word, mochikaeri, that I took the trouble to learn.
