This should probably be made a sticky like on the old forum. It's kind of helpful when you need to type some unusual things, like ¢ , é , £ , ¥ or some such oddity.


This may help you all when dealing with your "International" friends. To make these symbols and letters, ....Hold down the 'ALT' key and then enter the following numbers with the number keyboard on the RIGHT SIDE of the keyboard. I've noticed that not all numbers get the same results for all computers. I even see it below. All these numbers gave definite symbols on one computer but here some show plus signs, minus signs or underlines. You must experiment with YOUR computer. Have fun! :D

(credit where credit is due: a gentleman by the name of Orv Reichert [the P-38 Forum] showed me these a couple of years ago)
