Hello to all you Leonistasios amigos out there!

Finishing touches underway for a new release of leointeg: Trying to make all keybindings work in all OSes.

Might seem silly but I'm having trouble with the "Clone Node" keybinding: I'm not from america, and do not have a standard keyboard, nor standard mapping for uncommon keys such as the one used in the "Clone Node" from what I gather from reading the docs. Not even sure where that small 'tick apostrophe' is supposed to be on keyboard...

So I'm wondering if any fellow Leo users with a standard us/english keyboard, could confirm to me the most generally accepted default keybinding for the 'clone node' command. 

Just make sure you're describing to me the POSITION on the keyboard, and not what is printed on the key. 

Thanks!

In the US, I see it called a "back-tick".  It seems to be the same as the grave accent. It is normally on the far left of the 2nd row from the top, and is the unshifted character..  That is the same row that contains the numbers 0 - 9.  The only row above it contains the various function keys (F1, F2, ...).   The ASCII code number is 96.

Thanks! That's what I thought but I wasn't sure and on my keyboard that key has tilde and slash instead.

So thanks again for confirming this!

On my US keyboard, the key also has the tilde (when shifted).
