I got a good one!!!
 

Stephen (if thats right, sorry if its wrong) Should cellotape/duck tape the cable in so he doesn't trip over them!

You know that's about as funny as staring at a rock.

Stephane...with an accent over one of the e's, but I don't have it on my keyboard so whatever. "Unixmad tripped over the cord" is just a figure of speech for "The server went down and nobody knows why". Power outages, bad script loops, cache overflows, network burps - these things happen, but it's always temporary.

Alt+Ctrl+e!

é

è.é

btw (hold, alt + press,0233 on num pad = é)

Doesnt work...

i think that only works on british keyboards :-/ americans have to use alt + numbers :-/

no clue how I made any of those.

Alt + random numbers

i know what you mean :D

Actually, that's interesting. My keyboard's made by Microsoft. Seems strange that they'd have different models for different regions, but I guess you've just gotta play the market. Your keyboards sux anyway.

you can see my keyboard 0_0

I had a Microsoft keyboard with hebrew letters =\

control alt e may only work in word or something

but it's Stéphane. alt+0233 on the number pad gives that. But yes, "Stéphane spilt his coffee" or "Unixmad tripped on the cord" is largely a euphemism for a Graal outage.

or...
 

you could skip the whole process of guessing combos with alt...and run character map....which tells you the majority (if not all) of the alt codes for a letter/symbol. Some letters have more than one combo, but char map just tells you one.

I find it useful when trying to type international spellings of words.

Re: or...
 

I would prefer guessing anyday.

Kaimetsu: Probably due to install of Windows, you probably selected region as UK and that would apply.

Tyhm: Burps, ehehehehehe.

AlexH: Rocks can be pretty damned entertaining...

I just started pressing key combinations and a bunch of windows popped up. scary.

use the # pad not the #s above the letters
