Kappies and Umlauts and others

To answer a question elsewhere on the boards and one that often crops up.

For those that aren't on lap tops:

Hold down the alt key and type 136 on the numeric keyboard for the ê.
For the ë hold down the alt key and type 137 on the numeric keyboard.

These are done using the extended ASCII character set.

Here's a link to the extended ASCII character table.

I don't think it's the same as I recall Oe-la-la not being able to use the extended ASCII characters. I can't recall how she managed to do it.

Perhaps someone with a laptop can let us know if they work ?

Copy and paste from internet, or other suitable downloaded document with foreign characters.

If you are using MS Word, however, you can select Insert, select Symbol and then copy and paste to other program from there.
