TuDogs Finds
1. Ascii Character Map
ASCII, the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is astandard seven-bit code finalised in 1968. For all versions of ASCIIcode the first 128 slots (0 to 127) are identical. The extended ASCII,codes 128 to 255, vary. A little known feature of Windows is that allthe ASCII symbols may be generated by holding down the Alt key andentering the ASCII number on the number pad. It must be on the numberpad, not on the number line above the typewriter keyboard. Thus, forexample, Alt+156 generates the £ symbol. Alt+157 the ¥, Alt+14 the ö,Alt+230 the µ. You'll find the number associated with the symbol onthe Keyboard map. There's a Windows map for application developers -who will be interested in control characters as well as specialcharacters. I developed this as a developer tool and added theKeyboard map for general use. Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP. 557Kb.Free. Found at
