Text input - special characters?

[Cindy Mottershead]

I am not using that image, but it still works for me to click the + sign 
(O key) three times (quickly). It does a '+', then a '=', then a '/'. 
But, it only does this in the first mode, where you have numbers with 
lower case letters or symbols beneath them. If you get to the CAPS mode, 
it does only '='.
