2200.0. ""Squared" character in a label" by TOWNS::RUFFIEUX () Mon Feb 05 1990 13:49

    Does anybody know how I can add the  "squared" character into a label.
    
    I wish to print out a label like so 'MAG 2' but with a small 2 and
    also in a raised position.  Any ideas would be appreciated..

    There are two ways: from the keyboard, or from an editor.
        
    First, you must find out how the Compose Character function is
    implemented on your keyboard.  Then, after entering that function,
    type the uparrow character (^) and the 2 or 2 then ^.
    
    or
    
    Use your favorite editor to create the character with the decimal
    value 178.

2200.2Compose Function???TOWNS::RUFFIEUXMon Feb 05 1990 17:259
    re.1
    
    	I've searched, but to no avail, I cannot find any documentation
    on the "Compose Key".  If it is not too much to ask, can someone
    write me on how to enter the compose function....
    
    
    
    Thanks..
