LibreOffice: Auto-formats texts

gjacobse

This is an interesting problem I have encountered today - Auto formatted text in LibreOffice.

I'm transcribing notes and commands from paper to keep them all in one place for reference and passing on - But when I enter some text - it's auto formatting which is stripping the 'correct' text.

sudo zgrep ‘Ban’ /var/log/file2ban.log*

ends up as

sudo zgrep ‘Ban’ varlog/file2ban.log*

sudo -u www-data php occ files:cleanup

ends up as
sudo ~~u www~~data php occ files:cleanup

I am not sure I want to really turn off AutoComplete/AutoCorrect. as the next time I open the document it could be altered and not known that the syntax was changed...

In Tools > AutoCorrect, I have "While Typing" turned off because its annoying.

Will try that and see what happens.

I do that too.
