This could be keyboard layout dependant... On a US keyboard ~ is to the left of 1 On a UK keyboard ~ is next to the enter key, and ` is to the left of 1 If we're going by key scan codes then you need to be pressing the key in the correct position, rather than the one with the correct keycap. -- Jon Stockill [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
