Hi, I'm a relatively new user of Mathematica. I'm somewhat surprised to find out that entries such as xt (same as Subscript[x,t]) is not treated as a symbol. It many cases it would seem appropriate to treat this as single symbol. Is there a way to set the default settings to accomplish this? Is there a reason why I wouldn't want to do this? Thanks for your help. Larry O.
