I am using Sikuli and my script returns an error because of the following line.
type("06/01/2017" + Key.ENTER)
On the screen, I see that the script types 06 and then it stops. The problem is the slash. The error seems to be related to me using a non-US keyboard. I found some tips online like using type("&") or type("7", KEY_SHIFT) instead. However, it does not work.
This is the error message I get:

Thank you in advance for any hints.
Try to use paste() for entering the text and then type() separately for pressing Enter.
