RIP 'q' Key :-(

Recently, my colleague's thinkpad's 'q' key died. I am now thinking of digging up old xmodmap manual to use an unused key for 'q'. In the meantime, I am using the following method to input the 'q' character in gnome-terminal, firefox, etc.:

Control+Shift+u, then the hex Unicode value for the 'q' character (71)

... time to find the xmodmap manual... wait, I think I made a post about this a few years ago
