I need to use my notebook keyboard to insert a divide symbol, the
kind with two dots and a horizontal line, it's ascii character 43

the table to select characters. Ideas?
Dave
in Unicode, the math division symbol is code point 00F7 (decimal 247).
To enter that into a document using gedit, hold depress CTRL-Shift-U,
let go of those keys and type "00f7", and once you hit, say, a space
character your divide sign will appear, as if by magic.
You can find the appropriate Unicode charts at: http://unicode.org/charts.
good, thanks!
