Hi, I'm using SAS C 6.5 on an A2000 using WB 2.1 and a German keyboard. Does anyone know how I get to the "@" character using the editor "se" ??? All help gratefully received. Ged Murphy ……Autopilot engaged in Bonn Germany

Ged, have you tried "LeftAlt & 2" (Digit two in the main part of the keyboard)? Manfred <- flying from FRA via Amiga Autopilot 1.06

I don't think se does anything special about keys, it should be controlled by your keymap. On the British keyboard it is second row up, second from the right (not including return) shifted, but the German one may put it somewhere else. Peter Wade Autopiloting from London, England

You should ask about this in the C programming section of the AmigaTech forum. At least one SAS person has been reading and replying to messages there. Otherwise like someone else said, if you know where the character is on your keyboard, se will usually let you use it. You can use Keyshow in the tools drawer to track down the keystrokes needed for funny characters on your keyboard. Then if that key doesn't work in se, check the se configuration screen to see if that key has been redefined to do something else in se. Then clearing or changing the redefinition should get your special character back. // \X/ Amiga or bust! Gary Bonnstetter, Bonnsoft
