If this has always been the case, then some magic was working in 1.2.x which is no longer there in 1.3.x. The code has changed, since the sequences I pointed out in my origianl post have always worked for me before now. > make sub/superscript at the end of a text region exit the textrm > environment first ? And also disable sub/super in the middle ? Regarding your question to Andre', I'd reiterate as well the earlier sequence of strokes which allowed me to first place my letters (in textrm, I guess), followed by inserting other (apparently verboten) characters in the middle of that sequence. The old code must have accomodated my ignorance of the rules... I'm not saying I can't live without it, but for a person entering formulae like I do that sort of sequence is a real saver of keystrokes.
