How do I tap unicode characters?

For example I want to tap £. I have to tap "more, numbers", "more, symbols", but I can't put "£" in there becuase I get a ruby error:


malformed UTF-8 character (ArgumentError)


The key looks something like this in the accessibility thing:

<UIAccessibilityElementKBKey traits="plays_sound keyboard_key " label="&#xA3;">

Not necessarily that label but something like it.

I don't think I did. Its been a month since I've had time to mess with iCuke, to be honest.

I think I ended up just forcing my tester to tap the location on the screen, which sucks.
