my keyboard isn't cheap...I don't think any American keyboards have the British pound sign over the number 3...we have the # sign

Which is the British pound sign, just the American version of it.

then it should be the ~ sign?

if not copy & paste £

:thumbup:

no thats a hash sign ########

threads like this never keep on topic do they??

I find it weird there aint a £ sign on american keyboards, especially as the pound is so much greater in value than the dollar

In our land, we use it to state either pounds (on the right side of the number) or a numerical position (on the left side).

yeah that means # = number

ie:

#1

#2

#3

ok cool

on our land we have the $ sign :thumbup: they do in Iceland too :laugh:

yerp...I guess the british pound sign would be considered a special character in America and in word processors


it's no where on my keyboard

# also means POUND...when u make a phone call, often automated systems will say, "Press the number followed by the Pound (#) sign."

thats pretty fucked up. I never knew that at all, but then why would i??

our phone systems say "please enter the number followed by a hash"

which is also fucked up cos a few years ago i was like, "shit i have to roll a doobie just to make a phone call!?!" :huh:

It's probably somewhere amongst the "alt codes". Just hold the "alt" key and start typing in 3-digit numbers, then let go of alt.

Example:
Alt + 168 = ¿
Alt + 192 = └
Alt + 146 = Æ

^^^^didnt no you could do that :huh:

Yeah, it's nuts. I had to type a paper in Spanish once, so I spent like an hour typing in random numbers, trying to find all the vowels with accents and everything.

I will NOT BE holding down the ALT KEY
NO!
