I use a Mac with the superb Matias Quiet Pro external keyboard. Some combination of keys I hit every now and then wrenches me into overwrite mode, from which I thought the only escape was through prayer and restarting XXE.
Today, as it happened again, I broke down and searched through the XXE docs for a more immediate solution. (I know, that’s such a radical approach for a tech writer.) Right away, I found the right page <http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/wh/overwrite_mode.html> and followed its advice to click the OVR icon in the lower right status bar, which returned me to INS mode. However, that page also instructs me to do nefarious things with my Insert key as the shortcut for the same action. Like all Macs and third-party Mac keyboards, I just don’t have an Insert key. Could you update the referenced page to include the Mac keyboard shortcut for the INS/OVR toggle? Or if one doesn’t exist natively in the Mac edition of XXE, add one? I've used XXE every day for about a decade, and still love it! Thanks!
