One thing I like about KDE—and I’m told Gnome also has it—is the ability to enter almost any special character by combining keys; for instance, Ctrl-Alt-Shift-C will get you a copyright sign. Actually, I’m pretty sure it was Mac OS that first had it, since I seem to remember experimenting with it under Mac OS 7. Anyway, surely there’s a way to get the same functionality on Windows XP? The trouble is, what Google query would one enter to find such a utility?
