+== Options ==
+
+The !InsertSymbols2 plugin options are accessed by opening Wikidpad Options dialog and selecting ''Insert Symbols'' under ''Plugins options''.
+
+In the first field you can add or delete symbols from the the list of symbols. Separate each symbol with a comma, don't worry about the number of spaces between symbols or if there is a space at all. Next time you open the Options dialogue the symbols list will be displayed with each symbol followed by a comma and one space.
+
+In case the symbols show too small or too big, you can set the font size for both the Options dialogue and the symbols window in the field 'Font size'.
+
+If you want to keep the symbols window temporarly open, you can choose a modifier key (Alt, Control, or Shift) to press while double-clicking or together with ENTER. The symbol will be inserted at the current cursor position,  the symbols window will remain open and the focus will switch to Wikidpad editor. To go back to the symbols window if using the keyboard, press the plugin shortcut, default Ctrl-Alt-I.
+
+If you want the symbols window to close only when closing the window or pressing ESC, check ''Symbols window stays always open''. This option overrides the modifier key above.
