I know this is hardly an acceptable answer, Sascha, but it's
what i've found so far; These are some ways to make the console
print whatever character you need:
Bash shell:
echo -e "\number"
(for example: echo -e "\141" )
Perl:
perl -e 'print "\number\n";'
(i.e. perl -e 'print "\141\n";'
Finally, here's a little C program I wrote that works kinda like BASIC's
CHR function. It uses ASCII codes as an argument. So, you would just type
"chr 97" to see a lower-cased "a".
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char c[] = {atoi(argv[1]), '\0'};
printf("%s\n", c);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
... I'm really surprised I'm the only one with an "Alt Gr" key..
I find myself using it all the time! (for the @ when i type e-mail, for
example..)
