- jessriedel 16y agoTo save space, you were supposed to use the "l" (lower-case "L"). I'm sure there's a good article about it, but all google found on a first try was this metafilter thread: http://ask.metafilter.com/46743/Royal-typewriter-missing-keys http://ask.metafilter.com/46743/Royal-typewriter-missing-key...
