I still can't find how to pop open the console. To get the "~" I press [alt gr]+[=], that should result into "~", but nothing happens.
Any clues? I'm using AZERTY

Hi there, well, I've got the same question as "My name is Bond, James Bond"...I still can't find how to pop open the console. To get the "~" I press [alt gr]+[=], that should result into "~", but nothing happens.
Any clues? I'm using AZERTY

Have you tried pressing '?

Try grepping the scripts for ~ or tilde and changing it to something else - somewhere there is a command bind that triggers the console.Have you tried pressing '?

Try pressing whatever key as at the left of the '1' key (not the keypad). Might be ' as Ben suggested, but I'm not familiar with AZERTY keyboards.

Xavier yes you are correct. I found this out sometimelast week but I havent been back to the forum since. the key I press has the following symbols on it and it is located below the "Esc" key to the left of the "1" key and above the "TAB" key.' ¬

Of course, you need to have told DOS and Windows that you're using a UK keyboard, or they will assume you're using a US version, and certain keys will print the wrong symbols.
I would imagine a similar problem exists for AZERTY keyboards, as more than one country uses those too.

On every UK keyboard I've ever used, the tilde is over by the "enter" key and is obtained by pressing shift and "#".Of course, you need to have told DOS and Windows that you're using a UK keyboard, or they will assume you're using a US version, and certain keys will print the wrong symbols.

This is true but the tidle key on a UK keyboard is usless, in that it dosn't accsess the consol. I use the "'¦" key that is to the left of the number 1 key.

On Swedish keyboards, it's also the key left to NR 1, and below the ESCAPE key. If it makes any sense, it's a QWERTY keyboard.

If anyone else has similar problems, I would suggest trying all the symbol keys one at a time (with and without shift) until they find out which one works.

James: I've just tried that and it does seem to work that way, which is strange because that key does produce "'" (the backtick) as it is suppoed to when pressed in Windoze or DOS, and even in the console editor itself.If anyone else has similar problems, I would suggest trying all the symbol keys one at a time (with and without shift) until they find out which one works.
