This symbol is very important to me, it means Chinese money, RMB or CNY. I use it everyday on OOCalc. How do I enter this symbol? The old way is to keep it in tomboy (a memo application) and copy & paste it to OOCalc when I need it. Windows (Chinese version) has a special feature to enter this symbol easily. Other symbols I don't know how to enter in Linux are: 1. 、 2. 《》 These symbols are very frequently used Chinese punctuations. They are all available in Windows as 'software keyboard' that when enabled, each key is replaced by a Chinese punctuation. Thanks to this interesting feature, currently no Chinese keyboard actually implement these punctuations as separate key. P.S. I tried to look for them in char-map but is not able to find them easily. The way I keep using is google-for-it-and-copy&paste. P.S. Use UTF-8 charset if you cannot see my example punctuations correctly. If your font doesn't include these punctuations, try use GNU Unifont or check the screenshot I made and attached to this email. -- 锐业软服(国内业务) http://www.realss.cn Real SoftService http://www.realss.com 销售咨询(Sales Department): 0086 592 20 99987 (Chinese, German, English) 国际业务(International Sales): 0086 10 8460 6011 (German and English) 联系:厦门大学科技园,嘉庚二号楼6楼 邮政:厦门大学2312号信箱(邮编361005)
