Thanks for your information.As a matter of fact I have a swiss
keyboard. On the third key I have " (2nd level), 2 and @ on the first
level.I use Scite to write my programs and the @ character is
acessible.When I switch to irb (in  the shell) when I strike on @
nothing happens.It seems that inside irb I should change the keyboard
layout ?
