Keyboards

[sobrique]

Keyboard layout is pretty nice, but I've just discovered it seems to be severely lacking a 'pipe' symbol. And a forward slash. These keys are apparantly just above 'carriage return' except on a UK keyboard, that key is #~ Which of course, makes stuff rather interesting. Do I switch to US, and have a load of stuff in the wrong place (I'm sorry, but " is shift-2 on _real_ keyboards) but get my |\ but have "@ and # in the wrong places.

Or do I just assume that it's on windows therefore it's for wordprocessing, not 'real' work (e.g. involving changing directory, or ... well almost any real unix command) and leave it as UK.

Decisions, decisions.
