This patch allows Windows Live Writer users to make use of the "Split post" function to separate a teaser from the rest of a post, by replacing the "more" comment it uses for the function with a "split" comment as used by Drupal.

are you suggesting that this feature is not working?

Is it making the check somewhere other than _wlw_blogapi_filter_extra_code? This isn't the slug feature, but the "Split post" toolbar button feature that this takes care of.

The button inserts a comment <!--more--> at the current cursor position when clicked (splitting paragraphs if necessary). But as Drupal uses <!--break--> for the same purpose instead, we need to map the former to the latter when saving a node. (We might want to map it back when WLW gets an already published node for editing, too.) It is to handle this situation, that this patch has been created.

Updating the patch to round-trip the transformation. Now when opening a blog post in WLW, <!--break--> gets turned into WLW's post splitter.

This is working just fine with the 5.x backport, needs testing on 6.x however.

Has this been tested on 6.x yet? I'm only running 5.x, so I can't test it myself right now.
