Yet another reason for avoiding KDE4 like the plague.

I've solved my own ₪ problem, as well as lots of other symbols I use from 
time to time, by installing both the charselect applet (the few most 
frequetly used symbols) and the kcharacterselector application (for the 
availability of any others for which an odd need crops up) in my second 
panel. That was a suggestion by Duncan (last name forgotten, sorry), for 
which I am grateful.
