You're not doing anything wrong. That's the way it works, believe it or
not! If you don't want to work in expanded mode, then define the
specific mode you want in your SS command.

≪SSFOO,ip=5,0,uf=cgtimes,md=nm,lm=10,rm=70≫≪SSBAR,ip=10,10,uf=cgomega,md=bo,lm=20,rm=60≫

Or, if you don't want to bother with that, an XPL macro might help. Viz:

xp gt ≪USFOO≫ wg

Save it as, say, foo.xpl. This is a good one to map to an altkeys.sav,
or hardwire to your kbd file.

00=xp,gt,≪,u,s, ,f,o,o,>,>,wg

where 00 should be set equal to the scancode and keyboard table of your
choice.

Cheers!
