Unicode via Alt key - 18/04/13 02:22 AM
This has to be manually enabled in Windows via the registry, but once enabled, Unicode characters can be manually typed in via Alt+ similar to how you enter in ASCII symbols via Alt+keypadNumbers
For this explanation, when I mention simultaneous keys, I'll use (plus) and + for the actual numberpad key. Unicode input is done by Alt(plus)+3C3 which gives σ
Normally, and it does in mIRC's case, this interferes with Alt+ shortcuts. I wanted to check this in Notepad... and Notepad is actually "Alt+" friendly.. it disables Alt+ shortcuts after entering Alt(plus)+ so then the sequence can be fully entered without shortcut interruption.
Is this feasible in mIRC?
