Title: Shortcut keys
Post by: kenkew on May 15, 2009, 12:46:47
Some where I have written down the way to access my euro symbol. It's a third option on my top number keys along with '5' and '%'.
Alt 0128 will bring it up ( €) but I know there is a 3 finger method to get it....?

Mine works with either Alt Gr+4 or Ctrl+Alt+4 .
There is a list of the common € shortcut keys here under the heading 'How do I access the euro symbol?':

Ctrl+Alt+4 = €

So why the heck is it on '5' key?
Cheers, knew it was there some place... :)

Yes, that's it. You don't need Word on an Apple as WALL•E is an Apple robot. It's a standard keyboard symbol. ALT+8.
