What (who) is cokebottle - definition
cokebottle
<character, humour> /kohk'bot-l/ Any unusual character,
particularly one you can't type because it isn't on your
keyboard. MIT people used to complain about the
"control-meta-cokebottle" commands at SAIL, and SAIL
people complained about the "altmode-altmode-cokebottle"
commands at MIT. After the demise of the {space-cadet
keyboard}, "cokebottle" was used less, but was often used to
describe weird or non-intuitive keystrokes.
The OSF/Motif window manager, "mwm" keystroke for
switching to the default keybindings and behaviour is
control-meta-bang. Since exclamation mark might be
thought to look like a Coke bottle, Motif hackers referred
to this keystroke as "cokebottle".
