Folks,
It's occurred to me that it would be helpful if there were special characters made available here the way the Smilies are to the left of the box in which one types. That would save one the currently-necessary contortions to embed such things as degree signs in ones posts. My recollection (although I can't recall, at the moment, from where) is that the admins have the power to add things to the Smilies patch.
My initial list includes:
If there's an easy way to do this and I'm just not bright enough to have found it, please let me know.
If any of you agrees with me, please chime in with your symbol suggestions.
TIA,
Eric

My initial list includes:
- Degree sign
- Upper case omega (symbol for ohms)
- Lower case mu (symbol for micro)
- Lower case omega (common symbol for angular velocity)
- Lower case phi (common symbol for an angle)
- Lower case theta (common symbol for an angle)
- Lower case tau (common symbol for a time constant)
- Plus or minus sign
- Less than or equal to sign
- Greater than or equal to sign
- Not equal to sign
- Lower case pi
If there's an easy way to do this and I'm just not bright enough to have found it, please let me know.
If any of you agrees with me, please chime in with your symbol suggestions.
