Well, surely there must be some kind of js-editor-thingy or firefox plugin that will do this for you ? I recently ran into the opposite problem on OS X; it generously turns regular quote-marks ("), into start-end-quotes. Not very helpful when trying to post shell-code in a blog. Anyway, every reasonable OS I've ever worked with has a nice visual keyboard with all kinds of glyphs available -- any reason not to use that ? Lastly a tip -- one lazy way to get around this, is to search for the character on wikipedia, and then simply cut'n'paste the glyph you want, eg: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Less-than_sign#Less-than_sign_plus_equals_sign http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_mark_glyphs (etc) (This assumes your terminal is able to actually *render* the glyph, ofcourse).
