My keyboard is acting strangely again, and I need to use the

What about this: Copy the following line to the bind you are using
(normally cua.bind):
\bind "C-S-A" "self-insert ß""
THe restart LyX and now Control-Shift-a should insert an "ß"
Brilliant! That's exactly what I was hunting for: inserting ß from
the minibuffer. Updating the bindings file is a plus I had not thought
of, but I'll do it right away. I have been using the ERT \ss as a
temporary solution, but it's ugly to see. I still don't understand why
I can get ß in the minibuffer (with, on my Mac, option-s) and not in
the main window, but I can live in blissful ignorance for now.
Thanks,
S.
