Subject: RE: Tech: KEYS ON COMPUTER
Despite my warning, I note that someone dug up an ancient HTML practice thread in which some idiot made an attempt to post ALL of the ISO (or something) characters, with decimal and hex character numbers, and character (entity) names for those that have them. Or something like that.

It starts with the Latin 1 character set at about: HTML Practice thread 2 and goes on and on and on ….

Note that there were quite a few "typos" in the posting, so I'd still advise just getting a cheap HTML handbook or quick-reference that's been proofread. But if you just want to look at the amazing variety of characters that are sort of workable at the 'cat…

Not that it's a complete listing of everything that may work.

Note that if you try to print the posts, your printer may show different character glyphs than your monitor does, if the printer doesn't use the same font – or font set – that you've got turned on for your monitor.

It gets very confusing….

(mumble, mumble, mumble,….)
