Why is alt-numpad input not supported in Linux? That seems to me to be much geekier than using a character map program to type an em dash or a trademark symbol. And Linux is supposed to be the geeky OS, right?
I use em dashes a lot--151--and I like to use proper angled quotes as well--145-148. And there are quite a few more that I use only on occasion, but I still know their codes... degrees, cents, UK pounds... How can I use this knowledge under Linux? From what I can tell, I can't. Everything I can find about using those characters involves mapping them to AltGr with an existing key. Does someone know of a better solution? Joe
