Dear LyX developers,

I've been documenting a LaTeX program recently and have found the documentation toolbar useful, but this has highlighted a couple of symbols which could usefully be added to the toolbar. One is the section mark character § (\S in LaTeX), the other the pilcrow ¶ (\P). At present inserting these characters involves Insert > Special Character > Symbols and then locating the characters in the character table (which means scrolling down or increasing the depth of the dialogue window). They would fit perhaps after the information symbol `i'.

Referring to chapter 4 or section 4.3 is fine but it begins to sound strained referring to subsection 4.3.2 and just silly referencing subsubsection 4.3.2.1. On the other hand, referencing §4.3.2.1 is simple and elegant.

Andrew
