As for the "strg+alt" (== ctrl+alt) question:
You have to type the decimal code for the character on the numerical
keypad while holding both "strg" and "alt" down:
"strg+alt" "9" "1" generates "["
"strg+alt" "9" "2" generates "\"
"strg+alt" "9" "3" generates "]"
"strg+alt" "1" "2" "3" generates "{"
"strg+alt" "1" "2" "4" generates "|"
"strg+alt" "1" "2" "5" generates "}"
When You release "strg" and "alt", the character will have been typed.
Does this answer You question?
