It's a standard character on the Mac, like shift-f types "F" and option-7 types "�" in most fonts. It's just how you do it. It was probably invented by some Mac programmer to save character space. (There are, and used to be a lot more, situations where there's a limit on how many characters you're allowed - like 255 for a standard 'display dialog' alert window.) In OS 7/8/9, you can investigate these with the Key Caps utility in the Apple menu, Hold down option key, shift and option keys, etc. Switch fonts in the Font menu, etc. In OS X, you find Key Caps in Applications/Utilities. -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
