1. backslash in linux
I'm using Mandrake 8.2.
When I type [backslash] in the ed editor, also in the gedit editor, and the
KMail editor, in all three editors it prints a less than sign.
How am I supposed to do the newline thing?

Me, too. 9.0 was just released yesterday.

It works fine here. You probably have the keyboard mapped wrong. Go to:
-> What to Do?
Administer your system
Configure KDE
to bring up the Configure KDE dialog, assuming you are running KDE and not
Gnome. Expand 'Personalization', and double click 'County and Language'.
You could also get it by choosing:
Configuration
KDE
Personalization
Country & Language
Make sure the 'Country:' dropdown has the correct country selected.
