No network on this Freerunner at the moment, so I can't paste the

file verbatim, but looking at /etc/multitap-pad/im-multipress.conf it

appears that both back- and forward-slashes are mapped to KP_0 on the

default factory image.
This clearly relates to the 0 key, as + is also mapped to this key

and indeed pressing the 0 key in character mode does indeed produce a

+ sign. However multiple taps to the 0 key do not produce the other

characters I'd expect.
Is this a known bug?

Are you using a later firmware image?
I'll update when I have network on my Freerunner, but at present it

seems that I have some hours to play around with it before I can

connect.
Stroller.
