      Name: rmT116609 Date: 11/20/2000


      java version "1.3.0_01"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0_01)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0_01, mixed mode)


      Cannot type question mark ('?' -character) in swing text field.

      Environment:
      RedHat linux 7.0
      Finnish keyboard settings
      X11R6 4.0.1

      Steps to reproduce:
      -install jdk1.3.0 for linux (or 1.3.0_01)
      -cd into the demo/jfc/SwingSet2 -directory in the jdk directory
      -run java -jar SwingSet2.jar
      -try to type "?" in the Frame title -field. It will not work.

      I tried the same with blackdown JDK 1.3.0 implementation and it works correctly.

      The bug makes it impossible for me to install JBuilder 4.0 Foundation as it
      requires a licence key which has '?' -character.
