To insert it into your file, try       typing Alt+12 (on the number pad) in your editor:               text text text blah blah blah        [Alt+12]        text text text blah blah blah              (Don't literally type "[Alt+12]", hold Alt and type "12" on the keypad.)              To do it in a batch:               echo Hello,[Alt+12]world!>textfile.txt              Results may vary. (For example, my text editor replaces low-ASCII characters       with '?'.)              --       Brooklyn, where the weak are killed and eaten.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
