I have a minor inorance (one among many) that needs its ass kicked ...

[Halo_n_horns]

I know there's a keystroke for the copyright symbol (the little "c" inside the circle), but I'll be damned if I can figure out how to do it.

Anyone here in Lit-Land that can cure this tiny bit of ignorance for me?

Thanks in advance ...

Hey, there's another ignorance ... I left the "g" out of my thread title ...

Bad, me ... BAD!!!

I don't see that symbol on my keyboard, so I am inorant too. I know on typewriters, each brand is a litttle different from others, and symbols like that vary among them. If it is the same on computer keyboards, you would have to tell your brand of computer.

Dell ... XE or something like that ... Microsoft either way.

I used to know this keystroke years ago for printing & graphics, but it seems to have escaped me since then.

With MS Word, place a "c" between parenthetical marks: (C) . Unless the settings have been fiddled with (that's tech talk), if you then hit the space bar it should transform into a copyright symbol.

That was entirely too fuckin' simple. Thank you sincerely for helping lift that incredibly heavy weight from my shoulders. Now I have a © saved in MS Word so can use it whenever I want.

Alt+0169

You may try Alt+0169

From the Windows "start" button:

Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Character Map

Check the box at the bottom that says "Advanced View".

Click on any character you want and see the "alt" sequence required.

Or, doubleclick the character, press the "copy" button and then go to wherever you need it and "paste".

I use OpenOfffice, not Word. However, in each program there is an Insert menu. You can insert a symbol or special character by clicking on that menu item. You will get a pop up window with all kinds of weird characters. You can then select the character you want and it will appear in your document.

You already have the copyright character, but you may need more characters in the future.

First, make certain your cursur is in the exact position where you want the copyright symbol. Mouse click "Insert" on your tool bar, scroll down the pop-down menu to "Symbols," choose the copyright symbol you prefer (there are several choices--all legally recognized variants), and click again.

The only minor problem is that different versions of MS-Word and of Word Perfect position the commands in different places. You may need to do a quick search the first time, but the entire process will take about 3 seconds once you're familiar with it.

Then there are those symbols we all like to use once in a while:

(|) = narrow ass
( | ) = wide ass
( * ) = sore ass
(o)(o) = hooters
(.)(.) = little hooters
(_._)(_._) = saggy hooters
= young 'Y'
(Y) = mature 'Y'

If you want to add it to a story, you can also use the following:

You should see the copyright symbol appear in your preview wherever you inserted it in the document. That is sure to come through on the site properly. Sometimes different text editors can use funky formatting and it will come through on Lit all buggered up if you try to put the actual symbol in the document. Using the HTML standard insures Lit's text processor can't mistranslate it.

All of you people are too cool. I now know something I wanted to know; some things I didn't know I wanted to know; and some things that I'm still trying to figure out if I should know.

It's nice being in the know.

All that, and as a special bonus you got all that sophisticated banter between Cloudy and Zeb. Maybe CC and RR talking about "insert" got 'em stirred up. Anyways-how, life is good this weekend.
