Solution 1

Copy paste this:

Ø - capital

ø - lower case

Solution 2

Don't know about Ubuntu, but on Window you can use:

Alt+0216 for Ø

Alt+0248 for ø

Numbers have to be entered on the num pad.

Solution 3

Change keyboard layout to Norwegian and hit : (assuming your keyboard layout is US/UK)

Solution 2

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%98, this is Unicode character 216, or D8 in hexadecimal, so you can type it on Ubuntu by pressing ctrl-shift-u to enter a unicode character, typing D8, and then enter.

This is a very strange question, since the obvious answer is press the zero button and then whatever modifier-key + button that produces a forward slash in your keyboard layout. Obviously you are having issues wit this, perhaps you can give us some more details about what kind of issues you are having?

In bashor in a GUI application as geditor chrome?

@jcbermu yes gedit.

By "zero slash" are you asking about the Latin-1 symbol \216 (zero with a slash through it, html entity Ø)?

[barlop]

-1 you should describe what is happening when you try it, and even include a screenshot of what is happening,. Your title is very poor as it really doesn't state your difficulty at all. Like asking "how do I cross the road" and not stating what problem you are having doing so.

Just noticed that you said zero slash and not o slash.
