How do I type this characters on the computer: ě ē?

Question

that was just copying it off of wikipedia

Answer 1

Go to this website:
http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/codealt.html

IT shows all the ALT key symbols. You need to make sure your numlock is on when you use the ALT key and the numeric pad to make these symbols.

Answer 2

For Mac: I don't know.
For Windows: Click on Start Menu. Go to Accessories. Open up System Tools. Then find "Character Map". Click on Character Map. At the bottom right is the keyboard shortcuts to make the character appear. The bottom left tells you another code, but I haven't any idea on how to make it work. You can however, just double click to copy that special character to clipboard, and use + "V " to paste.

Answer 3

How did you do that? Actually, I have a cool tip that only old folks like me know.

Hold down the ALT key and type in a 3 digit number on the 10 key pad, (with numlock on) then release the ALT key.

This is 130: é
131: â
132: ä
133: à
134: å
135: ç
136: ê
and so on up to 254, then you get into unprintable characters, like line feeds, etc..

Answer 4

If you are going to use them in a special language (Ex. French) you should go to your Control Panel - Regional and Language Settings and in the Languages tab select the Details option. Select the language you would like to use in Keyboard, after that you only have to press ALT (right only) and press your preferred letter.

Answer 5

Microsoft Office word processor has capability to bring up a screen with all the symbols you might want to add as do most modern word processors, spreadsheets or html editors.

Answer 6

Click on START then RUN..type in..charmap then click OK. This will bring up the character map window for you. Click on the character you want to use..SELECT..COPY ..then PASTE it to whatever it is you're doing. Easy when you know how eh! :)

Answer 7

the quickest way is the combination of:
alt+0235 = ë
For the other, the character map is your friend. You really just need to copy/paste it where you want it.
