Hello Marco,
I asked pretty much the same time ago and the answer was to use the HTML escape
codes.
You should type an inverted slash \ followed by the escaped character code,
that is:
& l d q u o ; for inverted commas â
& r a r r ; for a right arrow â
etc.
For French quotes they are:
& r a q u o ;
and
& l a q u o ;
I've added blanks between the letters in order to avoid rendering of the
characters in this very message. You should type the code altogether and the
special character will appear after you type the
last character of the code.

Hi Guys,
my laptop dual-boots Arch Linux and Windows 7, but I don't use Windows much.Â
But I tried out [Shift + Alt Gr]<< for « on Windows 7 and it didn't work :(.Â
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.

John C - sorry for the dupe, forgot reply to all.
---------- Forwarded message ----------
Keybindings are an arcane rabbit-hole, especially cross-platform.
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.

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
