Thank you. I was also trying to search some equivalent for " ctrl + alt + ascii_value " [under DOS/ M$windows] to enter special character ( alpha, gamma ) or graphic character. I find this as " ` + ctrl + ascii_value " for "joe", but it print different characters, which I guess is due to dispaly type. -- H.S.Rai : ####[ Linux One Stanza Tip (LOST) ]########################### Sub : Sysadmin jobs (changing boot message) LOST #111 To change the message which greets you before the login prompt appears, as root, edit the file /etc/motd ...
