The lowercase ñ can be made in the Microsoft Windows operating system by typing Alt+164 or Alt+0241 on the numeric keypad (with Num Lock turned on); the uppercase Ñ can be made with Alt+165 or Alt+0209.
On personal computers with numeric keypads that use Microsoft operating systems, such as Windows, many characters that do not have a dedicated key combination on the keyboard may nevertheless be entered using the Alt code (the Alt numpad input method).
The most common superscript digits (1, 2, and 3) were in ISO-8859-1 and were therefore carried over into those positions in the Latin-1 range of Unicode. The rest were placed in a dedicated section of Unicode at U+ 2070 to U+209F. The two tables below show these characters.
It’s easy to make any accent or symbol on a Windows keyboard once you’ve got the hang of alt key codes.
As of Unicode version 15.1, there are 149,878 characters with code points, covering 161 modern and historical scripts, as well as multiple symbol sets. This article includes the 1,062 characters in the Multilingual European Character Set 2 ( MES-2) subset, and some additional related characters.
An established method was to configure the right Alt key as an AltGr key and to use it in combination with a Latin base letter to obtain the equivalent precomposed character (accented form of the letter). AltGr+A → ą; AltGr+C → ć; AltGr+E → ę; AltGr+L → ł; AltGr+N → ń; AltGr+O → ó; AltGr+S → ś; AltGr+U → € AltGr+X → ...
Alternatively, the desired character may be generated using Alt codes. For users in the United Kingdom and Ireland with QWERTY keyboards, Windows has an " Extended " setting such that an accented letter can be created using AltGr 2 then the base letter.
Enter a Unicode character using an Alt code (Windows operating system), the Option key (Macintosh computer), or Unicode combination (Linux). Some keyboards have a Compose key that provides similar functionality with some other operating systems. Lists of Alt codes and Option key combinations are given in sources linked under External links.
Hearts in Unicode. As a common symbol throughout typographic history, the heart shape has found its way into many character sets and encodings, including those of Unicode. Some characters depict the shape directly, others reference it in a more derived manner.
The following tables indicates the Unicode code point sequences for phonemes as used in the International Phonetic Alphabet. A bold code point indicates that the Unicode chart provides an application note such as "voiced retroflex lateral" for U+026D ɭ LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH RETROFLEX HOOK .
