the LC_MONETARY variable in the following way:
export LC_MONETARY=DE_DE@euro
There is no need to complete the installation process and the system
configuration by remapping the X server keyboard. The X server keyboard map
/usr/lpp/X11/defaults/xmodmap/DE_DE/keyboard is implemented as a link to the
German ISO keyboard map that is already set for your system.
Use the AltGr+e key combination to enter the Euro symbol through your keyboard
or alternatively take advantage of the UNIVERSAL Input Method, invoke the
menu of the character list by Ctrl+Alt+l, and enjoy the variety of different
characters that are now available to you. For more information about the new
input method, refer to the Chapter 10.5.4.2, “UNIVERSAL Input Method” on page
263.
