Symbols
Several years ago, I recall learning in this NG that Alt+0176 inserted the
degree symbol, however I don't recall the background. I don't believe that this come from the Character Map so would appreciate if someone would clarify. I would like to see what other symbols are available using theses codes. Thanks
