There is a tool called the Palette in the Tools menu that lets you enter all the symbols with mouse clicks without having to do any more set-up and without having to learn the key combinations. If you do want to set up the keyboard have a read of section 4.3 of the Xpp manual and the comments at the head of the file app-defaults/XppKeyboard in the first instance. > Once I get these in the system though, I definitely need to get some proofs > written for them.

Good luck! And do keep asking if you have any more problems.
