Hi Larry,
I am in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain (Atlantic Ocean, in
front of Marrocco - Africa) ; probably you haven't even heard of it, it's a very
small volcanic island, the population is around 80.000 people, but loads of
tourists.
I have a normal keyboard, I guess it must be a Spanish one because it has the
�, which is an exclusively spanish letter like in ESPA�A. It also has 3
Microsoft keys, you know the ones that get you to the Start Menu in Windows and
other things that I don't know, I've never used  them.


In my keyboard there isn't a ~ key.
But there is a -Alt Gr- key, which is just next to the space bar on the right,
you use it normally to type the third character of a key when it exists, like: 
{ } [ ]  \ | @ # �
I supose there must be a key for the same purpose in  other keyboards, even if
they call it with a different name.
To type  ~ , I have to click Alt Gr + 4 (but not in the numeric pad), although
in the 4 key you can only see the 4  and the $ (this one you type it with
Shift+4), that's why I didn't find the way to type this character.

Cheers,
Carol^
