Did you try in some of your applications? With a non-American keyboard? With
an American keyboard? Just curious...

I just tried under Eudora and WinWord 6, it gives a totally erratic and
potentially dangerous result (scrapping my newly entered message under
Eudora, as it had never existed, returning to the previous one [that is one
case] and changing the font of what was already entered on the current Word
line after having whistled bells [that is another case]!)... I stopped
trying... (of course my normal Canadian keyboard can enter the character
directly, with another result: nothing happens in those two applications [no
character is entered]!) Nice interface! Easy indeed!
