Hello all, many thanks for all your hints and ideas. Yep, I'm a Windows guy, and yep, I'm using AutoHotkey every day (and programming with it sometimes - additionally using other much more sophisticated stuff - infos only via PM...).
Using [Alt Gr + [] and [Alt Gr +]] is mentioned in the given link Guillemet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillemet section "Typing "«" and "»" on computers" BUT I'm using a German keyboard... Many thanks and greetings Udo
Hi Guys, my laptop dual-boots Arch Linux and Windows 7, but I don't use Windows much. But I tried out [Shift + Alt Gr]<< for « on Windows 7 and it didn't work :(. I knew I preferred Linux but I didn't realise [Shift + Alt Gr] was part of the reason. So I installed /UK International keyboard/ from http://www.zolid.com/uk-intl-kb/index.htm and that seems to do the trick, using [Alt Gr + [] and [Alt Gr +]] from: Now I'm heading back to Arch Linux, and my main desktop PC, as soon as possible. Hope this helps someone.

For those on windoze I highly recommend getting into AutoHotKey; in fact now I'm on Linux I really miss it, wish the Linux version had gained a bit more traction, one of the VERY few things causes me any nostalgia for windoze. ================== Hi Udo have you tried [Shift + Alt Gr]>> for « and [Shift + Alt Gr]<< for «. Works OK on my Arch Linux system. :) John On 01/21/2015 08:40 PM, Udo Weik wrote: Hello, I need guillemets/angle quotes in my text, see Guillemet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillemet The corresponding Windows keystrokes are [Alt+0187] for '»' and [Alt+0171] for '«' but Zim doesn't support [ALT+NumpadNumber]. And I can't use the Symbol dialog, because I use automation for inserting these symbols. Any hints? Many thanks and greetings Udo
