[OT] backslash when working with Japanese (Re: Pantherbites)

2003-07-25 Thread Joel Rees 
 * input method is a mess!  I like the old one ("disintegrated") better.

Yeah, I think the IM is going backwards as much as forwards, myself.

 * took 15 minutes to find how to enter '\' (backslash) instead of 」、 
 (yen) ONCE Kotoeri is enabled.  Once Kotoeri is enabled, '\' key 
 refuses to backslash and yens yens yens!  Solution: Add "US Extended" 
 via [Input Menu] tab of [International] Preference Panel and use it.

I was able to get the backslash in the Project Builder editor in Jaguar
using the option key on the yen key or the forward slash key, I don't
remember which and I didn't bring my iBook to work today. Do any of
those key combinations work? (I'll try to remember to check that tonight.)

I'll vouch for the [option] + [yen] combo.
FWIW [ option] + [ / ] yields a mathematical division sign
