Father Bucko,

Create a file called, e.g., tilde.pgm. Go to the command line
and enter the following pfunc r1  pfunc r2  pfunc
r6 .

If you've done everything right you should see a boldface r1 r2
r6. Save the file. Then, whenever you want the tilde, just run
tilde.pgm. It would be wise, also, to save this to your save-get
file.

F5 ldpm tilde.pgm,t F9
F5 stsgt altkeys.sav F9 (or whatever you called your saveget
file)
F5 ldsgt altkeys.sav F9.

Then, your alt-t will evoke the tilde.

Good luck.
