for example, "¥" I had to copy and paste it, it's not a font, so how do you type stuff like this?

Copying and pasting.

Hold alt, then type four digits on the numpad. It must be the numpad, the numbar will not work. The four digits should be the decimal ascii representation of the glyph you want.

Quote from azam_me91How this works?
It shows the number value to enter for each symbol. You can also just copy and paste them from it. Set the "Starting At" field to the ascii number you want to start at, and the middle box will show ten symbols starting from that number. You can also use the arrows to scroll through them.
If you have a symbol and want to know its number (so you can enter it manually with the numpad or to enter into the "starting at" field and see more like it) paste it into the left box labeled "Convert", it'll show the symbol number in the right box.
For example, the symbol rawgreen originally posted with ("¥") is number 165. If we enter that into "Starting at", we get:
¥ (165), ¦ (166), § (167), ¨ (168), © (169), ª (170), « (171), ¬ (172), * (173), ® (174), ¯ (175), ° (176), ± (177), ² (178), ³ (179),
So, now we know "¬" is number 172, and can hold ALT and hit 0-1-7-2 to create it. Make sure to add zeros before it until it's four digits long (172 creates ¼, whereas 0172 is ¬)
¬.¬
(I should probably update it to add the zeros, but I'm *working* on a paper.... ¬.¬)

Yeah i figured, but for most of it, it shows a little square box, which sucks.

I think Microsoft Word would have a longer, yet more detailed, listing of all the useless glyphs you can make with them. Also, I think CTRL + X works for something....I would have to test a few out again.
