Somewhere I may have a character map. I've used the é alt-0233 often enough

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so

In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's

Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your

anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in

you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."

Thanks - I found it.

What I really need is a sheet showing the shortcuts (alt-whatever4digits),
as it's a bit of a wander to get to that map to click :{))

If you have windows, you have Character Map

Thanks, Wayne,

However, that's not a storable sheet. It's a nice illustration, though!

Not sure what you mean by storable. I might be able to make a
digitally down loadable copy if that would be useful. Do you have a
printer onboard?

There is a link to a small (133k) pdf file with a bunch in it.

Also, if using a laptop, invoke Numlock.


Thanks! That's just what I needed. All the alt codes on one sheet.

Cavelamb, thanks for PDF'g the other for me, too.

I'm sitting here in my yacht (74.1F inside, 78.6F outside) trying to figure
out your thinking process (or lack thereof), Skippy.

It almost appears dysfunctional. Why, when working on a computer that
contains a program (charmap.exe) that you can run by typing it into the run
menu or from the start menu or even create a shortcut for the desktop or the
task bar, would anybody want a sheet of printed paper with the alt codes on
it?

Open charmap.exe and select any character and it will give the alt code and
other information. Select copy and the character(s) goes to the clip board
hit control + v to insert the special character(s) in the text you are
working on.

Do you ALWAYS do things the hard way?

True, I suppose that's why the short bus was invented.
