pipe character on n810
Well in the x-term application you can add the pipe character to the toolbar shortcuts at the bottom of the window. From the menu select tools and then settings. Press the "Toolbar shortcut" button, then new. Title can be anything you want, value should be "bar" without the quotes. Be sure that the initial "b" is lower case, upper case will not work. > Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 04:47:55 -0800 (PST) > From: Thomas Armagost <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: pipe character on n810 > To: maemo-users@maemo.org > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII > > Where is the | button or key combination on the n810 hardware > (built-in) keyboard? > > Tallyho, > Thomas Armagost > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://sillyblog.net Noah Davids Serendipity is a function of bandwidth E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://members.cox.net/~ndav1 ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

In OS2008 you can configure what buttons are in the X terminal toolbar. I have there buttons for both tab and pipe (the required symbolic name for pipe is "bar"). - Eero ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: pipe character on n810
You can remap the n810's built-in hardware keyboard and replace the
yen or euro symbol with the pipe | symbol.
Edit the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-44 file.
Change this...
key { [ m, M, euro, euro ] };
To this...
key { [ m, M, bar, bar ] };
Do a hard reset. Pipe | is now Fn-m.
I found the above info by googling. URL available on request.
Finding | on the n800's virtual keyboard is a little tricky, too.
First select Caps (second row down on your far lefthand side) and
then select &!e (third row down on your far righthand side)

Then select Symbols (top row, second closest to your far lefthand
side) and then select | (see URL below)

It's above the copyright symbol, next to pi.
Tallyho,

Yes, indeed. It is even possible to have the vertical bar promoted to the first screen of the special characters field on the N810. There is some wiki around that rearranged the key map for other languages. I am so lazy that I have not bothered to look up that link. But it would probably be the place to start.

Since the 800's keyboard (in both forms) is purely an on-screen display, shouldn't it be possible to rearrange the layout with a patch?

After pressing the chr, then you have to press the up arrow on the screen. There you have what is likely one of the most important unix special characters. Crazy.

Even worse, does anyone know how to get the pipe character on the IGO BT keyboard (using N800/OS2007 with HW keyboard set to Generic 104/English-UK)? The specials are all over the place (tilde, gt, lt, not, etc all on the wrong keys) and no key at all generating the vertical bar. ///Peter ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

I don't know but if you press and release the left Chr key you will get a popup with special characters. br Mathias 2008/2/11, Thomas Armagost <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Where is the | button or key combination on the n810 hardware > (built-in) keyboard? > > Tallyho, > Thomas Armagost > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://sillyblog.net > ___ > maemo-users mailing list > maemo-users@maemo.org > https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users > ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
