In the item editor when you select an item, you should be able to type in the "Name:" selection like normal. What is the unexpected behavior of your input? Does it simply do nothing or is it doing something else instead?

Also, if you happen to be using a Mac, that would be useful information to help you out. I was having an issue with typing in OHR on mine a while ago.

There is a bug on Mac in the Callipygous release where the backspace key doesn't work. We will be releasing a Callipygous+1 bugfix version soon to fix that and other problems. In the meantime one solution is to use a nightly build of the next release (wip), which has those bugfixes. However there is at least one significant new bug: problems with palettes not updating in the sprite editor. Also, if you edit your game with a nightly build, you will not be able to go back to callipygous or callipygous+1!

Another workaround is to copy a blank text field (e.g. the name of an unused item) and paste it over the name of the item you want to erase.
