    <p>To type a character like <code>¤</code> you would hold the <code>Alt</code> key down and type <code>0164</code> (tested on Windows). </p> <p>In Windows you can see the Character Map by clicking the <code>Start</code> button and navigating to the <code>Accessories</code> folder where you will find a <code>System Tools</code> folder which contains the Character Map application.</p> <p>On a Gnome system it is located in the <code>Applications &gt; Accessories &gt; Character Map</code> menu item</p> <p><strong>NetBeans Shortcut</strong></p> <p>One way to do this in NetBeans is to create a <code>Code Template</code> that will handle the expansion for you. To do this, click <code>Tools &gt; Options &gt; Editor &gt; Code Templates</code> and create a new template with the <code>¤</code> character as the <code>Expanded Text</code>. Then you can use whatever <code>Abbreviation</code> that you defined for the <code>Code Template</code> and press the <code>TAB</code> button to expand it.</p> <p>For example, I defined a new <code>Code Template</code> that used the <code>Abbreviation</code> of <code>gc</code> for the generic currency symbol. Now when I type <code>gc</code> and press <code>TAB</code> in the editor, it gets expanded to <code>¤</code>.</p> <p><strong>Eclipse Shortcut</strong></p> <p>To create a <code>Code Template</code> in Eclipse, go to the Preferences panel through <code>Window &gt; Preferences</code> and expand the <code>Java &gt; Editor &gt; Templates</code> section. Once there, click the <code>New..</code> button and fill out the <code>Name</code>, select a <code>Context</code> that the template will be available in and in the <code>Pattern</code> text area type the <code>¤</code> symbol.</p> <p>To expand the template in whichever <code>Context</code> you chose, type (for example) <code>gc</code> and then use the <code>Control + Space</code> combination to expand the template. If other similar values map to the letters you've chosen then the code completion list will appear and you will need to select your template from the list.</p>
