I find that keyboard shortcuts for characters don't work in Story Editor (in the past at least). Having the ability to perhaps have a series of characters, like "220+230+137" might be useful in various situations.
One of the reasons I still use Wordperfect as a word processor in Windows is that it has the ability to perform macros (Word had some incarnation of its own that I have a hard time figuring out) -- a sequence of operations that might be keyboard entry, might be operations -- I guess what we might consider from Scribus's perspective to be miniscripts. Is there a way of doing that? Greg
