> Did you use the numeric keypad for the numbers? That's the rectangle of numbers on the right side of the keyboard that looks a little like a calculator. The various shortcuts that insert characters only work if you do them on there, and not if you do them in the row of numbers above the main part of the keyboard.

Thanks for the ideas. I tried a few other combinations, and those are web browser commands, in case the rest of you didn't already know.

So, what's your favorite ASCII character or command?

I noticed something odd--there are duplications, like Alt-88888 and Alt-8888888 are both 8. How high can those Alts go? And the Alts seem to start with Alt-32.
