gawd.... the keymapping on a PC is nutz

holding alt and hitting four keys for some characters... sheesh

f'rinstance :

the ligatured 'ae' = alt +0230

æ <--- like that

thats one place Macs still have a major advantage.. you hold down two keys and hit a third for the most obscure letters, but of course when you do... on a PC you get jibberjabber unicode....

I like ligatures, (thats letters joined together like the 'ae' above to make æ.

We lost alot when we moved away from luverly old hot lead type..:)

I dont expect anymore than maybe 2 of you to know what I mean..:)

adieu,

    I keep forgetting your a PC convert.

    I guess you never wondered why sanfam calls me A% eh? :)

    just look up alt codes via google. they are the same codes used for HTML only with a 0 added in front.

    What you're doing when you enter characters that way is entering the ASCII code for the character directly. It's actually quite a logical way of doing it, even if it isn't as handy.
