Topic: Get yer symbols here!

Every so often, someone tries to put special characters in his or her name, post, etc. Most times, this ends in disaster, with the desired symbol getting replaced by a square. So, in a moment of boredom, I decided to provide a solution. Here, then, is the ASCII character set, in numeric order.

☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○◙♂♀♪♫☼►◄↕‼¶§▬↨↑↓→←W 35;↔▲▼
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~⌂
ÇüéâäàåçêëèïîìÄÅÉæÆôöòûùÿÖÜ
¢£¥₧ƒáíóúñѪº¿⌐¬½¼¡«»
░▒▓│┤╡╢╖╕╣║╗╝╜╛┐└┴┬├─┼╞╟╚λ 6;
╩╦╠═╬╧╨╤╥╙╘╒╓╫╪┘┌█▄▌▐▀
αßΓπΣσµτΦΘΩδ∞φε∩≡±≥²⌠⌡÷≈°∙·√ⁿ²■

I hope you enjoy it.

[edit] ASCII 201 comes out as λ 6; and ascii 27 comes out as W 35;? Odd...

Okay, copy/paste didn't work, so as long as we have a numbered list, here's some simple instructions. Find the symbol you want to type, and note the number beside it. When you type your post, hold the ALT key, and type the number on the number pad. That's how I got the characters, so it should work for you as well.
