Pointers...??? Who needs pointers? We're talking about Pascal, right? :-)
With the Object Pascal implemented in Borland Delphi, you can get a looong way
without ever using pointers (consciously).
BTW, I'm sure there is a digraph defined for it, I just don't remember which
right now. I know there's (* *) for {}, and (. .) for [ ], so there must be
something for ^ too!

The solution is obvious: small stickers that you put on each key (was included
when I bought a Cyrillic keyboard driver/font set for Win 3.11 back in -91).
(I will *not* set follow-up to off-topic.geek, as I don't download that

Do svidanija!
