Hi André,
I'm aware of that. I exactly described my problem in my previous
message. The ALT+key combination works in every program except
Zim-Wiki, so it's obvious that there's an issue with it. :)

Zim is a Python application that depends completely on the GTK+ framework
for interacting with the display and input devices, as well as a few other
things. I don't think Zim does anything special with GTK+'s keyboard input
functions, so the problem may be in GTK+ on Windows, not with Zim itself.
Also, don't forget that Zim has its own typing shortcut for non-keyboard
characters. The manual says you can type
backslash SYMBOL-NAME space
to get most of the named special characters from HTML. See this list:

If you are in the USA anywhere near Boston in December, you are invited to
see a free presentation by me at a local computer club about how to use Zim
to get work done. Also, I will be recording it and will hopefully be able
to produce a decent video to share online by January or so.

Brendan,
thanks a lot. Of course it's a GTK+ issue, not directly Zim's, sorry
for the misunderstanding. BTW, this has a very low priority for me, so
put it in your to-do list accordingly.
I wasn't aware of the other typing shorcut. Thanks! That feature
totally solves my problem!

Hi Brendan,
Congratulations for the idea! Please also consider to share your
presentation slides (if any) on SlideShare or a similar site. They
might come handy if someone decides to organize a similar event in his
own country.
Looking forward to seeing the video
