math editor (operator point, editor keys) - need shortcut, need help manual - Messages

1.
"operator point" (name subscript) is often used feature
- add help reference to
- add shortcut to (for example, in "greek letters" widget, example picture attached)
2.
While edit math expressions, "cursors, bkspace, delete, space, etc" editor keys works in unusual way in very standard situations.
It is !very hard to edit math strings without explicit "editor manual", the manual must be included into program default installation (menu help).

Greetings,
3.) Consider the merits of a command line (similar to the debug window) where, upon the selection of a math region, the inline text of the math statement/expression (e.g., "line(j:-1,for(і:1,і<10,і:і+1,j:і+j),j,3,1)" ) will be displayed; that you may edit directly within the command line interface (or at least display the current 'cursor' location within the inline expression for the given onscreen cursor location of a math region.
May this be of Good Help,

I will admit, there is a little bit of a learning curve (especially if you migrated from Mathcad) when it comes to using the keyboard to navigate an equation. For me, moment of epiphany happened when I realized the cursor movement wasn't with regards to onscreen display/graphics, but rather the inline math statement being considered.
