No network on this Freerunner at the moment, so I can't paste the file verbatim, but looking at /etc/multitap-pad/im-multipress.conf it appears that both back- and forward-slashes are mapped to KP_0 on the default factory image. This clearly relates to the 0 key, as + is also mapped to this key and indeed pressing the 0 key in character mode does indeed produce a + sign. However multiple taps to the 0 key do not produce the other characters I'd expect. Is this a known bug? Are you using a later firmware image? I'll update when I have network on my Freerunner, but at present it seems that I have some hours to play around with it before I can connect.
