how about one that does +R and -R ( can't make a plus/minus sign here.)
Use the "compose" key combo on any xterm/console (it can be redefined).
[shift][ctrl],[+],[-] (release after ",")
Ie, [compose],[+],[-] --> "±R"
Carlos, That's cool ! It,doesn't work real well w/ the zaurus C760 tho. ( small zippy handheld Linux ,embeded computer) But I'm sure going to try that on a real keyboard when I next come in contact w/ one ;^) .The Z" has a specialistic keyboard, and things just aren't here at all,or are some sort of weird fn combo that requires " funny shaped hands " to execute. At least the builtin keyboard has bigger keys than thr 5x00 series. ;^) , and there is the added advantage of increasing my Nihon go. (yeah, the keyboard does let one enter Japanese hiragana,katakana, and some kanji as well.)
