RH -
Thank you for taking time. I see I misspelled mac as max---sorry.
For \label{E} I used the Shortcuts window, found label-insert, and assigned
keystrokes. But I could not find or guess something like ref-insert, only
href-insert which is different---right?
For accents, your answer led me to the Shortcuts window under "Cursor, Mouse
and Editing functions. This solved my problem very nicely for \H{o} since
"accent-hungarian-umlaut" produces the latex code \H{}. But then I was
surprised to see that "accent-acute" did not produce the latex code \'{},
although character in both LyX and LaTex source was accented. I had the same
problem with accent-umlaut. Is it possible to change this by using a different
LyX function?
But now I have a new question. What is the mini-buffer? How do I find out
about it? I searched the User's guide, but found nothing.
