Hi,
I also have in Jessie (and have always had, with Lenny then Wheezy) this
issue with shellinabox.
I use a French keyboard, and the characters that do not work for me are:
— symbol: ) FR key: ) Corresponding US key: -
— symbol: ° FR key: Shift + ) Corresponding US key: -
— symbol: ] FR key: AltGr + ) Corresponding US key: -
— symbol: } FR key: = Corresponding US key: =
— symbol: $ FR key: $ Corresponding US key: ]
— symbol: £ FR key: Shift + $ Corresponding US key: ]
— symbol: ¤ FR key: AltGr + $ Corresponding US key: ]
— symbol: ù FR key: ù Corresponding US key: '
— symbol: % FR key: Shift + ù Corresponding US key: '
— symbol: * FR key: * Corresponding US key: #
— symbol: µ FR key: Shift + * Corresponding US key: #
— symbol: < FR key: < Corresponding US key: \
— symbol: > FR key: Shift + < Corresponding US key: \
— symbol: : FR key: : Corresponding US key: .
— symbol: / FR key: Shift + : Corresponding US key: .
— symbol: ! FR key: ! Corresponding US key: /
— symbol: § FR key: Shift + ! Corresponding US key: /
For some reason, though, sometimes the "}" becomes available...
I let you imagine how frustrating it can be to interact with the shell
without * ] } $ : / (thankfully, * an / work on the numeric keypad). And
in a general manner, the lack of ) is also a bit distressing :-D
The US key correspondence is given to give an indication about the
physical location on the keyboard. For this correspondence, I used this
reference:
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/it-services/learning/documentation/keyboard-1/keyboard-r1-6.gif
which is the QWERTY keyboard which is the closest I could find to the
physical layout of a typical AZERTY keyboard.
Yves.
