Copyright insertion.

Some folk wish to copyright their work,fair do's.
Just discovered a neat shortcut for inserting the 'ringed C'symbol © into text.

Hold ALT & type 0169 on the [b]right-hand num keypad[/b],the © symbol will appear when you lift off the alt button.

Doesn't work here (Word). It may be font-dependent: character map and all that.

But typing (C) turns itself into the magical symbol when you press the space bar after the final bracket.

ALT & 184 works too.

You poor sods, that's a lot of typing just to get one character. Simply Alt & g on a mac

Alt-G? 'G' for 'Gopyright'? I thought Macs were supposed to be intuitive? (C) is far more intuitive!

How is ,Hold ALT & type 0169, intuitive or even "shift, open bracket, unshift, C, Shift, close bracket, unshift, spacebar" ?

Left hand, 'alt g', done.... whilst sipping coffee!

Just for the record ALT, or option as it's correctly known on the mac, 'C' gives us the continental ç, or whatever that's called. No doubt you have to type in the complete works of Shakespeare to get one.

Why would I need one, I'm not foreign and everyone worth speaking to speaks English.
