If you want to type the Bitcoin currency character easily, you can add it to your keyboard layout. I'd share my new layout, but I personally use the Colemak layout and no one is using that anyway, I guess.

You can download the Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator (also works on windows 7) to edit it yourself.
If people let me know what keyboard layout they use, and what location for the ฿ is the most convenient, I might fix up some installers tomorrow.

how do you easily type this character:

i still can't bring myself to deal in baht yet.

Using the above tool, copy paste the following character into your wanted key:

Code:

Ƀ

Or, this character:

Code:

Ƀ⃝

It seems the majority of users is using ฿ whenever a shorter version is needed, and it's also the winner of the poll.
What's probably going to be more important in the eventual result, though, is that mtgox is using ฿.

But of course you can do the same thing with Ƀ, or ฿©, or whatever you want.

I have the currency symbols assigned to AltGr on my Canadian French keyboard, but rather than using the baht sign (which I oppose), I use the three latin letters "BTC".
