curly brackets

[leoz]

Hi,
I use CodeBlocks on Win32 with and Italian keyboard.This kind of keyboard doesn't have the curly brackets keys.
With notepad or others editors I can write a curly bracket holding the ALT key and typing the ASCII code with a sequence of keys on the numeric pad but this trick doesn't work with CodeBlocks.
How can I write a curly bracket ({ }) on CodeBlocks without using the copy/paste method??
Thanks in advance

on my machine : Win XP English , I can do :
alt + 123 ==> {
alt + 125 ==> }

In whatever program, and also in CB.

Lieven

Are you sure? Try ALT gr + shift + the key with the square bracket, the one with "è" or "é" or the one with "+" or "*"

ps i have an italian keyboard too

Note that it works with ALT+123, not with ALT-GR+123.

Thank you all.
Now it works.I installed the latest version 1.0 rc 2 on another PC and it's OK whit ALT+123

i have a spanish keyboard.

Try this:

1) Open notepad
2) Play with alt-gr and all the keys you can imagine. The curlies will appear sooner or later

Isn't that what the program CHARACTER MAP is for? Just do a Start->Run charmap then find the characters you need, and their codes.
