What is the difference between unicode symbols 20A0 and 20AC?
Which should have which escape sequence? I'll put what's appropriate
in /lib/keyboard here but I'm not the right judge of that.

i'd add a mapping e$ -> 20AC to /lib/keyboard and remake the kernel.
then alt e$ will produce the euro symbol as l$ produces pound sterling and
y$ produces yen.

interpreting plain alt e as euro would mess up existing mappings
because there are several alt escapes in /lib/keyboard
that start with e.

I have been using an Italian keyboard for the last several
months. I am not concerned about remapping all the keys
since I now have gotten used to where everything is.
However, the is a Euro dollar key that I would like to
implement. Is there a simple way on Plan9 to assign this
symbol to my "e" <alt> position?
