Default How can I add a new symbol to the list?

Perfect. Thanks.

You're right - you can't create the character while in either dialog. You
need to create the "character" in a _document_ first, then select it in
order to go about adding it as an AutoText/Correct item.

Thanks for the input, but hold on -

It's not letting me format the text in autocorrect or autotext, so I can't
plug xbar into it - to make xbar I need to type one key in Symbol, then
another in TNR. Any thoughts?

back into x-bar, but it's a several step process. Can I save a
character/character combo as a new symbol so I can assign a keyboard
shortcut?
