I can't enter the following characters in the script editor:

{[]

I can paste them just fine.

I'm on a danish keyboard layout and I have to press Alt Gr + 7..0 for these characters, perhaps it is related to the Alt Gr key?

On a Russian keyboard, I can enter both curly braces { } and both square braces [ ] just fine, so I'm not sure I understand the problem. Is this because the Danish keyboard doesn't have curly and square braces as 'directly enterable' thus forcing you to use AltGr?

Edit: Nevermind, found this:

Edit #2: We're looking into it.

On Mac OS X and Swedish keyboard: { = [Opt+Shift+8] & } = [Opt+Shift+9].

Yes, {[]} are the third characters available on the numeric line on the main keyboard. The weird thing is that it works for Alt Gr + 0, i.e. '}', but not for Alt Gr + 7,8,9, i.e. {[]

Infact this bug is present with all blue characters in the keyboard image above, EXCEPT one: '}' (Alt Gr + 0). Quite strange..

I tested this on three different keyboards, so its not related to a keyboard anomaly
