Pharo how to get carect symbol

Rafael Luque
Hi all,

I don't know how to get the caret (^) symbol inside Pharo in my Linux laptop.

The usual combination of keys that work for me in other applications like browser, emacs or terminal does not work inside Pharo.

This is the VM version output:

I'm trying with the following images:

* 4.0 #40360
* 3.0 #30860

Thank you.

What is your keyboard layout?

Try to hit the key twice in a row, no modifier key.

My layout is "es" (spanish).

I've tried with the Phil advice and It works. I have to hit twice the key and modifier (in my layout shift key) to get the caret.

Thank you

Keyboard support in Linux is suboptimal.

I should do a pass on that one of these days.

It is in the pharo-vm/platforms/unix/vm-display-X11/sqUnixX11.c file, lines 2001-2364 and a bit after.
(+ x2sqmodifiers function).


There is a DEBUG_KEYBOARD_EVENTS define one can set to see what's going on.

My keyboard is french belgian.

There are also issues in CentOS that have nothing to do with Pharo as things are also going bad in native apps.
