You can only use the symbols available in ASCII (the command -ascii-
prints a list available symbols, type -ssc install ascii- to download
it). You can than use those symbols by typing -_char(#)- whenever you
need it. where # is the number of the symbol, for instance _char(243)
for c cedille. If you want more (e.g. greek, math) than you're not
alone, but it hasn't been implemented.
Hope this helps,
Maarten
