I'm looking for inserting some special characters within the text (in a

Is it possible that a user creates the character/s he needs and then
adds them to one of the lists of Characters so that they are available
whenever the user needs to insert them in his writing?
If yes, which is the way to achieve this?
There are two ways to insert special characters:
1) Press "Esc n" then specify the name of the character (auto-completion
supported, of course). Example: "Esc n mdash".
The characters listed in the dialog box are those defined in the DTD as
named characters entities.
XMLmind XML Editor does not allow to extend the set of named characters
entities by editing the internal subset of the DTD.
2) The Character tool. Click on the character you want to insert.
The Character tool supports all the characters found Unicode Basic
Multilingual Plane (BMP). Therefore the characters you are interested in
are almost certainly selectable using the Character tool.
If the characters you are interested in are not found in Unicode BMP,
then these characters are not supported by XMLmind XML Editor (despite
the fact they are supported by XML and by Java).
Note that it's possible to group often used special characters in a
"Favorites" section. Using this "Favorites" section facility makes the
Character tool quite comfortable to use.
