For some reason I don't have the Romanian 
keyboard in my installation, so I can only help 
you with a workaround: use one of the Turkish 
keyboard layouts (T-QWERTY has it to the right of 
"L").

I gather you have discovered the Character 
Palette, but are using Word with its half-baked 
Unicode support that does not allow entering 
Unicode characters from the palette and also has 
problems with other Unicode-aware font utilities. 
I had a similar problem yesterday when I needed 
some CE characters that were not accessible 
through the Czech, Hungarian, Croatian or Slovak 
keyboards - I ended up producing them with 
PopChar in Word 5.1 under Classic, saving each of 
them in a small separate file and importing the 
file into Word X (copy-paste did not work) - very 
far removed from speed typing.

The US Extended keyboard might also have <s,>, 
but it does not work with Word. You could try a 
"Norwegian extended" keyboard made by a linguist 
at Trondheim University - it is defined as 
"Latin", not "Unicode" and thus works with Word 
X: <http://jardar.nvg.org/mac/>.
