ATOMIC SUPERSCRIPTS

To go into superscript mode, press Ctrl-Shift-plus. To get out of
superscript mode (and all other character formatting modes), press
Ctrl-space.

Or type the characters, then highlight them and click FormatFont.


Or use the Equation Editor:
-- Insert Object Microsoft Equation 3.0
-- or add a button (command "InsertEquation") for it to some toolbar of
yours.


The problem with that approach is that you embed an object in the
document. Sometimes, I've found, Equation objects get changed into
pictures and can no longer be edited if I notice an error. In any
event, an object is larger and takes more keystrokes than a simple
superscript.
