\ can be "hard" to hit on a non-us keyboard, on Swedish Powerbooks
it's Alt-Shift-7 and on all other Swedish keyboards it's Alt Gr-+.

According to the information I have, it is only on american, italian,
icelandic, hebrew and portuguece (spelling?) keyboards that \ is
available as a single keystroke. All other 33 keyboard layouts, which
I have in my booklet from IBM, requires some modifier (usually Alt Gr).
You usually need both hands to hit the combination.


I fully agree with François Pinard.
