Konrad,

For the power of a subscript expression use, for example,

x Ctrl-_ 2 Ctrl-Space Ctrl-^ 3

to obtain (in FullForm)

Power[Subscript[s, 2], 3]

You have to use the Ctrl-Space, or an arrow key, to get out of the subscript
part of the expression. You could also have used the BasicInput palette to
obtain the power form and then enter the subscript expression in the first
slot and 3 in the second slot. Similarly, you could have used the BasicInput
palette to enter the integral with limits.

Or you can enter the integral, for example, as follows...

\[Integral] Ctrl-_ a Ctrl-% b Ctrl-Space f[x] \[DifferentialD] x

The Ctrl-% gets you from the lower position on the integral sign to the
upper position. Using Ctrl-^ is incorrect and does not work.

If i go:
x [CTRL]+_
i get index-mode.
Power-mode is obtained by
x [CTRL]+^

However, i don't know how to enter those two
directly above eachother. Is it possible?

Also - "\[Integral]" gives me a nice sign but what
do i type to get an integral with limits? LaTeX
sytax is supposed to work but i didn't succeeded...
