Problem: Quote keys are `dead' (; see "Solution" below.) Using Cygwin, my keyboard keys for quotes don't produce anything: it concerns the key normal: ' shift: " and normal: ` shift: ~ Also the key to produce ^ doesn't work: normal: 6 shift: nothing The command "uname" produces "CYWGIN_98-4.10" . I'm running Windows98 version 4.10.1998 (Dutch version). The hardware is a Compaq Presario 1260 notebook; it's keyboard has 88 keys, and has a NumLock mode in which 15 of its keys function as numeric keypad. Windows 98 configuration shows the keyboard language to be set to "English, United States" . I've also tried "Dutch", but then lots of keys produced wrong characters. The only line in config.sys and autoexec.bat, related to country specific settings, is: Country=031,850,c:\windows\COMMAND\country.sys Solution: Changing the keyboard layout from "United States (International)" to "United States 101" , solves the problem. -- Name: Paul van Bemmelen Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: +31 70 3621198 (home) -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
