When US keyboards have the Euro symbol on it, then it will have
happened.

P.S. - How do you enter a Euro symbol from a US kbd into Tbird?


One key on your keyboard might be set aside for composing foreign
characters; this is called the Compose key. To enter a Euro (€) symbol
in an X application, hit Compose =e.



P.P.S. - How do you do the same from the console?



On my system (Debian Sarge), I hit Right-Alt e to get the Euro.

For some programs, it helps to use a character encoding that contains 
the Euro such as iso-8859-15 or utf-8.


BTW, my X subsystem didn't define a compose key, so I had to add one 
using xmodmap.
