I think you're talking about the tooltip? I would suggest to use "/"

I can appreciate the frustration. I forgot myself, and had to refer to
my own help file for the Code Accelerator script to find it again.

Keep in mind that the setting is in the Configure program, not
PowerPro. The documentation for PowerPro is better IMO.

Tooltip line break character - Configure Command Lists, "Setup..."
button, All Bars and Menus tab, Tooltip Setup button: enter "/"
without quotes in the field titled "Split into multilines with the
character" 

If you didn't mean the tooltip, for actual command separator, you
should be using the Standard Configuration option -- found under
Configure Setup/Advanced Setup/Configuration.

There are some old wink videos at http://ppro.pcrei.com/ you might
find helpful.

You might also find the Code Accelerator script helpful as a front-end
for searching the pdf and other code-oriented texts. Its in the
Scripts subfolder in Group files at the forum's Yahoo site.
