    What is '¬' key for?

    When would I use it? What is it called.

        Just to the left of 1, using Shift. I've never seen it used anywhere either.

          Looks like it is UK only. That US International layout looks quite good for a Keyboard.

              Tilde is shift-# on the middle row - asdfghjkl;'# and is extremely useful (I'm often vague )

                Hmm, that key to the left of the 1 displays a superscript 2 (unshifted) and a superscript 3 (shifted).
                Tilde is in a bad location on my keyboard: just left to the right shift key, but it requires the Alt Gr to be pressed.

                Fat Tone: If you use LaTeX, then tilde simply is \tilde.
