That's funny. You don't look like a Navajo or Choctaw.

I am so tempted to drift off into family history, conjecture and myth.

Restraining myself here despite my pride in Native American family . . .

The code I'm talking about has to do with "web code." TEG is very tolerant of copying and pasting. For example, I don't have a degree symbol on my keyboard. I actually keep it on a yellow sticky on my desktop and can copy and paste it here to let you know that it was 15F when I got up this morning.

I don't have it on a key but I can use "Alt + 248" as a keyboard shortcut: 15 - see!?

Or, I've just learned that I can use a Number Code. I'll space this out so that it doesn't just make a degree sign: & # 1 7 6 ; If I put those together: Hey!

Now, since TEG is so tolerant of copying and pasting things like degree signs, I'm not sure how much it helps to know this and if one should bother to keep a list of keyboard shortcut code or number code handy . . . I'm still wondering about that.

My husband is Native... Ojibwe. He grew up on Leech Lake Reservation. We have lots of Native pride in this house. :)

Steve, you know this goes over my pea sized brain! :lol: But I have wondered how you do the degree symbol. Now I know. I think. :/

You have to use the keys on the numeric keypad. The ones at the top of the keyboard won't work. :)
