There's a really good one that you will have to pay €10 a year for

Err I can't remember....

Suck it and see key presses reveals Alt Gr+4 or Alt+Ctrl+4

I have a € symbol on my 4 key along with a $ accessed by shift+4 so I
knew there was a 4 in there somewhere :)

Interesting that in your post (including the quote) I saw the Euro sign,
but in the original I didn't. Looks like there's some confusion somewhere
over what code to use for it.

Or it went through a 7-bit Usenet server on the way through. The use
of 8-bit/extended characters on Usenet isn't a good idea.

| How do you do the Euro sign?

I *never* use the Euro or pound signs They are characters above 127 and do
not show correctly on email or newsgroups. It all depends how the
software is set.

What do you want to use a ? sign for, Bill? You're Welsh, make your own
money, like the Scots or NI ;-)

And if you're printing Welsh Taffs, Bill, send a few to me, I've just worked
out I only have 142 Welsh marilyns left to do, I need the cash ;-)
