Re: keyboard setting

This can get nasty.

You need to tell us what your keyboard is attached to. If it is a PC runnign Reflections or something, you can modify the keyboard in the setting for yout PC client.

If you are using X directly, you can use "xmodmap" to modify your keyboard layout and there is a rather helpful "man" page for this (If you can find a copy of xkeycaps for hpux your life will be made a lot easier).

Many years ago the pipe symbol was "^". Some systems still support this as a pipe so you could try it.
Never preceed any demonstration with anything more predictive than "watch this"

Re: keyboard setting

To change the keyboard type only until the next system reboot, execute command itemap.
See manual "itemap".
