alt+126 for tilde
alt+123 for { (or ralt+shift+è)
alt+125 for } (or ralt+shift+"+")
...
hence why as a young programmer the best ever present I got from my mother was a US layout keyboard, and never looked back. With AltGr deadkeys I can even write things that are Italian, like "È", but cannot be done on an Italian keyboard (there is no such letter on the keyboard, and one has to rely on the word processing sofware to properly capitalise it if "è" comes after an end of sentence).
Italian keyboards are shit for writing Italian, _and_ for programming.
