# Ctrl+]
# Ctrl+5
All those special keys are a great problem when using another keyboards than UK. Please provide with more examples below for different languages and OS.

Workaround for those who have problems finding the shortcut:
Change your systems keyboard language to a U.S Keyboard language
Look at an image of a US keyboard layout and ctrl+] the corresponding keys on your keyboard

With French keyboard, OS X: Ctrl+$.
(On the Apple wireless French keyboard, $, €, and *
are on a key to the left of the Enter key.) See this picture:

The community wiki post suggests that it is actually ctrl + shift + 5. Have you got any documentation to back this up?
there is a difference between German PC keyboard layout and German Mac keyboard layout. The suggested one is for PC, not Mac. I back this up through daily practice. – Fadi Asbih – 2016-03-04T22:11:46.043
@Burgi community wiki answer just summed up other answers here, but IMVHO Fadi Asbih should just extend community wiki answer... – g2mk – 2018-02-09T08:36:43.033

On a French keyboard, CTRL+Shift+5 works great.
