You mean like ��ܢ��P��Ѫ��_��?

Or maybe ��?

Alt + right number pad, 1-255 + release ALT

oh man, I already know alt + numbers.... but dom3 does not recognize the alt key being held, so all you get is numbers.

I will accept that is a no.... but the keyboard layout changing looks promising. Thanks kalkkis.

edit: well that works like a charm in normal programs, but again dom 3 doesn't recognize that I am holding down the alt key.

dang.

What about Shift+� and then o

Why don't you change the keyboard layout in windows itself?

For similar reasons, I have both my native German layout and the English layout installed. No need for external programs. Switching on the fly is also already supported by windows itself.

shift+" o doesn't work either.. n�t like it does here...

i mean it does in normal programs but not dom3. Does the german language set work with a one keypress in dom3?

I'll tool around some, see if i can get my keyboard to do it with german.

feh, i don't think theres any way for me to do this without getting a new keyboard.

even with the german layout i need to press alt+p to get the �

which doesn't work in dom3.

Let me apologize for being testy, I failed to mention that I am incredibly computer literate, and already know how to get the characters with alt+#s, copy and paste from charmap, and (now) using international keyboard...

but none of it works in Dom3. not even the shift"+o.

if anyone knows a way to remap the keyboard in winXP so that i can enter the character with one keystroke, then let me know - thats the only way I can imagine it working, and then, maybe it still won't.

update: I tried using AutoHotKey to map f12 to send �, but in Dom3 it sends the alt number instead of the character.

The "�" on the German layout should equal the ";" on the physical English keykoard. And I can confirm that it works, other layouts with special characters, like Swedish, also work.
