Hi,
You’re talking about this bar: | | |
If you are in AZERY: [AltGr] + [6]
Be careful, it’s the 6 on the main keyboard (above the T and the Y)
tested on Slackware: works in console, Kconsole, xterm, browser...

..., I think Slackware sounds better than 'Microsoft,'

Well, I know it's been a while, I saw the date of the last message.  But this might interest our Swiss friends, on a QWERTZ keyboard, it's AltGr+1.  :)
