Thanks! The chart you the link you provided shows that the symbol means the escape key. >>When you (the general "you", not necessarily Robert) say "Keyboard Viewer", are you refering to /System/Library/Input Methods/KeyboardViewer.app ? For some reason that doesn't seem to do anything for me. On my MacBook Pro (less than a month old) I do: 1) System Preferences 2) Keyboard...."Show Keyboard & Character Viewer in menu bar" 3) In menu bar (just to the right of the volume control on my MacBook Pro), mouse over the picture of a keyboard. 4) Click on "Show Keyboard viewer" 5) A picture of a keyboard appears. 6) any key that you type into any application, causes that key on the picture of the keyboard to briefly flash gray.
