Paul,
I found out why your first suggestion didn't work on
my computer even after I corrected the typo
"maths.bind" in the sciword.bind file. I don't know
whether this works on Linux systems or not. However,
in the math.bind file I had the following:
\bind "M-m ~C-~M-~S-braceleft" "math-delim { }"
That's a problem at least if your keyboard is a cheap
standard one like mine (In fact, I don't even have an
AltGr key, instead I use Ctrl+Alt when needed). It is
like turning on caps lock, and then pressing Shift+A
to obtain 'A' :). After I change it to the following:
\bind "M-m ~C-~M-~S-bracketleft" "math-delim { }"
everything works alright.
The reason I try to avoid the math panel is that I
like not to use mouse when I type as my documents
consists mainly of mathematics, and math panel serves
best if I use it only when I absolutely need it.
Do you have any idea what those ~'s stand for though?
Thank you!
Nusret
