Re: Amazing Perl 6

Ah yes, on the PC historically you hold down the ALT key and type the 
code with the numpad keys.


    There's some standard that says this is how to generate unicode:

1.    Hold down Ctrl+Shift
2.    Press U
3.    Type the hexadecimal for the unicode character
4.    Release Ctrl+Shift

    I'm under the impression that Windows supports this in some 
circumstances, and I know some Linux programs support it too.  
Unfortunately my e-mail program (Pine) seems to have some trouble with 
unicode -- I may have to look at alternatives after 14 years of use :(.

    HTH,
