==============================================================================
+&NUMBER FORMATS&
+
+ Numbers follow cell-specific format if set by the :format command.
+ Otherwise they default to column specific format, which can be set by the
+ scripting command FORMAT. The scripting FORMAT command has the syntax
+ FORMAT {COLUMN} {WIDTH} {PRECISION} {TYPE}
+ where TYPE is one of:
+ 0 Fixed-point
+ 1 Scientific format
+ 2 Engineering format
+ The default column format is (10 2 0), meaning width 10, precision 2, and
+ fixed-point. The column format width follows changes to the column width.
+
+ Note: If the exponent is too large (>10^21) or too small (<10^-18), the
+ scientific format is used.
+

+&Entering Greek and Math operator symbols&

+ Greek letters and a large set of math symbols available in UTF-8
+ can be entered and will display, provided your terminal supports them.

+ the keyboard sequence to be entered, to obtain the character on the right
+ of the equal sign.
