german keyboard layouts (QWERTZ), where the tilde originally was absent. Are you sure? The tilde was available at least on all PC/AT keyboards I've ever owned since the 1980s. Meanwhile it is on our keycaps, but I'm not sure about its "canonical" location ~ is usually (DOS, OS/2, Windows, Linux, *BSD) mapped to [AltGr] + [+*]. Macs, typewriters and home computers may be different. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_keyboard_layout. Alexander
