Problem

Symptoms: The customer is trying to create a macro using Alt-~ (tilde). WP51 will allow you to create a macro using the Alt-~, and will let you edit it, but will not let you run it. Solutions: Pressing Alt-~ to execute ALT~.WPM will not work because Alt-letter macros only work for the keys "A"-"Z". However typing Alt-F10 and entering the name "ALT~" should work. This problem is scheduled to be corrected in the next interim release after 01/19/90. IMPORTANT: Before updating any customer, please check the Software Change Notices to verify that the correction has been made.
