, SlickRCBD writes: I'm tiered of squinting while trying to remember the code for something like the +/- character. Is there any way to increase the 0177 (-: font size used in Character Map to make it easier to read? I can change the font with the GUI, but not the size. Yes, I know about clicking on a character and moving with the arrow keys, but I'd like to be able to scan the whole thing quickly without squinting. My eyes just aren't as good as they were when the win98 computer was brand new. I've fond a low-tech way: I've created a document listing many of the common ones, and have it pinned up near my desk! I find I've learnt many of the common ones (well, the ones _I_ use a lot), like the above one, anyway. A more taxing problem is finding an easy way of entering such codes on a laptop or netbook that doesn't have a numpad: is there any utility that lets me hold down an unusual set of keys (Ctrl-Alt-Capslock or something), and enter the codes, either on the normal 1-0 keys or the faint numpad on the letter keys? I can I know enter them the official way, but that's very tedious, since I have to turn numlock on, enter them, then turn it off. (Yes, I know I could use an external pad.) -- J. P. Gilliver.

Anything similar that covers the Unicode characters too? (I'm not sure if those are available under '98.) -- J. P. Gilliver.
