Nebulon Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Anyone know how to access the extra characters on the Apple IIe keyboard? For example, the British pound symbol. I see it on the key, but haven't found a key combination that displays it on the monitor yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Usotsuki Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I think there's a switch somewhere under the keyboard? It's just ISO-646. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebulon Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 Ah yes, the switch. Interestingly, that's how the machine arrived to me. I had to switch that off straight away. I was hoping for a way to access them with a Control or Apple key combination so that they could be generated in a text file along with $ and other symbols from the set I'm using currently. I wonder if it's okay to flip the switch while the machine is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can flip that switch allllll you like..... but it only changes the character generated on the screen, the ASCII values in whatever text you're working with are still the same. There's no way I know of to generate both characters at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamgroot Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Fonts with hi-res or dbl-hi-res graphics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
