orig.message to echo UTF-8 on 25 Apr 15 11:46:21 SD>> Sometimes number of keys in not enough. MV> On some European keyboards the right Alt key is labelled "Alt Gr". With MV> the proper keyboard driver it is used to give an alternate meaning to some MV> keys. For example with my Dutchkeyboard driver, the combination of the MV> right Alt key with the 5 on the top row is a Euro sign. Right Alt + m = µ MV> Right Alt + s = ß MV> Of course, ome can still run into some symbol that is not covered that MV> way. Then there is no other way than to just enterthe code manually...
Keyboard layout can be modified in driver at last. But there is another problem - location for mu, pi or ss can be easily guessed, but if there is no such clear consonance we need to make some memo to remember where it is - separate paper or sticker for keyboard key.
SD>> I know in book editing job they input special symbols that are not SD>> included in any layout. So they use printed paper with Alt+ codes. I SD>> do not think it is convenient. MV> Indeed, not convenient. Especially if seldom used. The note with the MV> special codes always gets lost...
I offer to consider on-screen keyboard as software replacement for such note. And "Character map" as ultimate replacement of keyboard in aspect of its unusability :)
SD>> And sometimes I do not understand why all these shit are included in SD>> UNICODE table - digits of different kinds, digits in circles, digit in SD>> sqaure, all the fucking emojies... I thought that UNICODE is way to SD>> represent all alphabets, but currently it stands to be font abuser. MV> The idea was to cover all characters in use. Past and present. It does MV> indeed seem an overkill. OTOH, it does not bother me. I just use what I MV> need.
I'd prefered that all these strange symbols was drawed as embedded SVG for example. Becouse if I do not have sufficiently fresh and complete font I see only square with four hexadecimal digits. Moreover all the text can be represented as SVG but it will be horror for full-text search indexers :)
