If there's an easy way to type non-ASCII characters like '·' that
works across different systems, including all the various terminal
emulators used on Windows and Linux (as well as MacOS, but I don't
happen to use it), I'd love to know about it.
I don't think there can be a portable or consistent way to create
that character. Incidentally (I just tried a few keys) I can get
the '·' by typing "Alt GR" and ',' (on my DE keyboard). [...]
Keith, what does your keyboard produce when typing <Alt>-<7> ?
On my US keyboard it produces the '·'. Don't know whether that
is reliable, though. (I don't think it is; e.g. my Thunderbird
doesn't expand any character when entering <Alt> combinations.)
