¤ ALT Key Codes ¤
Even wonder how to make interesting symbols in a document without using a dingbats font? Here’s how. Geeky? Yes! Good to know? Yes!
The following characters are made by pressing and holding one of the ALT keys, then typing the indicated numbers. You must use the numeric keypad on the right side of your keyboard (check that Num Lock is on). For example: ALT + 0200 = È. The letter appears after the Alt key is released.

This.. this wasn’t common knowledge?
If anyone knew what ALT+0200 was they are a serious geek.
Or a frenchman with a English keyboard ;)
Did you just figure this out or just wanted a story, sorry.
