What Is the Magic Trick to Make An "@" In ApolloOS

Good afternoon everyone.
I have been having a lot of fun getting a vnc-client working on the V4SA. One of the few things that comes back to haunt me is how to make a "@" in Apollo OS? Is it my keyboard that is not quite as compatible as I first thought (I got two) or is there a trick from the "old days" that I with no Amiga-experience would`nt know of?

Any thoughts on this would be awesome.

Likely it's a region setting for the keyboard, somewhere in prefs is a keyboard setting and likely you just need to adjust the keyboard to your region.

Thanks so much for reply. You`re correct. I had in fact been inside the "locale" settings and put everything except for the charset correct. Choosing one of the western ISO`s there,or as I also found out "UTF8" fixed the problem,and "@" ended up being shift+alt+2 .

I don`t know how I missed the charset setting first time,and every time I was snooping around there.

I also want to add a side-notice; in CoffinOS (running in FS-UAE) the "locale" settings was different,and I found no charset setting there.
