Really? The only times I've tried to use PC wordprocessors, special and foreign characters required clicking on menues or copying characters from a clipboard. With LyX, those characters are as simple as typing <compose> c 0 for © or <compose> r 0 for ®. [These sequences are automatically configured on Solaris-Sparc keyboards and probably readily available with other Unixes or Linux, depending on the X-server implementation in use.] -- Ronald Florence http://members.home.net/18james
