Including special characters
In HTML, you must write complex things like ® to get the ® symbol and
© to get the © symbol. In FTX, as in a word processor, you may simply
enter these symbols directly. (The page processor automatically converts them
to HTML whenever it displays your pages to web browsers.)
You may need the assistance of a “key caps” or “character map” tool to locate
or cut & paste special non-ASCII characters such as ©, ®, ™, ¶, ç, and so
forth, but if you can get them into an editing box, you can make them part
of your pages.
In Microsoft Windows, for example, you can use the Alt key and the 10-key pad
to enter these symbols using the keyboard. (Hold down the Alt key while
typing the character’s four-digit code on the 10-key pad, then let up the
Alt key.) A few examples are shown below.
© Alt+0169
| | ® Alt+0174
| | ™ Alt+0153
| | ¶ Alt+0182
| | ç Alt+0231
