Alt + 1 = ☺
Alt + 2 = ☻

All these and more. For those writing in Spanish ---

Alt + 0191 = ¿
Alt + 0161 = ¡

Alt + 0162 = ¢

None of this works on my Samsung Chromebook, an O/S based upon UNIX I think. I suppose there is a way, but WGASA, I'd never use the special chars.

The concept of a list of temperatures, or more importantly GPS waypoints is perhaps why someone might want to know that Alt + 248 makes the degree symbol.
28° is a bit less wordy than 28 degrees.
Now imagine a whole list of GPS waypoints, and the ink and typing saved!

Have you "Googled" it? It must be somewhere for you to use? Doug probably knows?

This comes from http://www.alt-codes.net/ that has ALL of them:

Alt + 132 = ä
Alt + 142 = Ä
Alt + 148 = ö
Alt + 153 = Ö
(couldn't find the other 2 but should be special characters on your wp program)
