customize.xxe" add-on OR by opening a DocBook 4 document and by using
"Tools|Execute Command", "insertCharByName" ENTER) to understand how it

* Without any parameter ("insertCharByName"), this command displays a
dialog box allowing you to type the name of the character.

inserts the character specified by its name ("InvisibleTimes") without
displaying any dialog box.
The contents of the dialog box is determined as explained in
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/insertCharByName.html.

entities defined in the DocBook 4.4+ DTD and this, whatever the schema
the document being edited is conforming to.
2. If a [$property_name] parameter ...
