Would strongly agree with this and recommend it. For a
start, it comes with some extra docs which include
references to short cuts and "funny" characters of all
sorts.
The install docs that come with it are simple enough to
follow for the .ini customisations
Worth it for me for the Copy Paragraph Format and Copy
Character format buttons when you want to paste style
formats frequently..
Lots of other goodies. And never had a problem with it.
