Python, client side: Skulpt

Anybody else on Mac OS X unable to type a colon in the interactive prompt?

I tried it in both Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4, and neither works.

Apparently it's not just this site, though. According to http://www.cambiaresearch.com/c4/702b8cd1-e5b0-42e6-83ac-25f... it's only sending a shift (KeyCode 16) when I try typing a colon...

On my Ubuntu system, the colon works just fine. Is this a known bug?

I wasn't able to type a colon either. I also wasn't able to type '+', '_', '<', '>', '|', '?', and '~'. These all have the common pattern of being shifted on a normal US keyboard, so I'm going to assume it's related to that.

Hmm, sorry about that, I only tried the demo console on Ubuntu and Windows, and only with a US keyboard.

I haven't found a non-insane way of doing it.. see f.e. http://www.quirksmode.org/js/keys.html

Anyone have any pointers? (or patches? :)

spanish qwerty keyboard layout here, works fine in safari 4 (osx), but I also use 'shift' to type colons, etc... maybe a fixed bug?
