This is the Linux 6.0.1 version. Shift-Alt-9 results in a beep with the message `You used a Command or Control Key combination which is not defined to do anything' (Hint to WRI's UI people: it's always nice to have the text in message boxes like the one in Help -> Why the Beep? be selectable, so that one does not need to copy it by hand like I just did ;-) ) Also, from what I can tell NumLock does not have an effect on this. -- m
