DrRacket can't write square brackets

I have a problem with my DrRacket.

I can't write [,],{,} in DrRacket.

I use the combo strg+alt+8, but if I do that in Racket it writes 8.

How can I fix it?

@Tobias Just wanted to acknowledge your comment ("Im using the Logitech G510 :( But I need the quare bracket for my Cond...otherwise its confusing"). Lemme ask on the #racket IRC channel to see if there are any other remedies. - Chris Jester-Young

That seems to be a keyboard configuration issue at your end, so I can't help with that. However, I can say that in Racket, [] and {} are treated the same as (), so you can just use round brackets throughout.

Try using English keyboard configuration on your system. Or you can just use parentheses (). They work the same! :) Good luck.
