R:BASE X, Enterprise, U.S. Version, Build: 10.0.2.11130 The keyboard is US standard layout. % prints as it did in my original message, it just isn’t being treated as a wild card by RBGXE. I just checked the settings in parallels, and the keyboard is US mapped to the Mac. %%%% < it types just fine, but isn’t a wild card to R:Base. I give up.
