1、 İHSAN RAMİ AYDIN e-mail : Rami.A 41 Broadleas Park Devizes, Wilts. SN10 5JA “My Bridge Book” ENGLAND Web : www.rami.aydin.btinternet.co.uk = “Dardan Trkiyenin grn - Gzlemler, Yorumlar, Gerekler” VE “ngiltere ve ngilizler hakknda” http:/www.Disardan-Turkiye-Ingiltere.co.uk/ = 13.Sep.2009 I prepared
2、the article below about “How to create Symbols and Accented Characters“ for U3A Devizes Internet Site If you use some symbols and accented characters frequently you might get frustrated and fed up having to go into INSERT MENU, then into the FONT SET where you can find the letter or symbol you want
3、to use, clicking / selecting it, then pasting it into the document then continue your work. But a few moments later when you have to use the same one again or a different one you have to repeat all these steps again and again. It becomes a tedious job if you need lots of characters and symbols to wr
4、ite. I use my Computer for English and Turkish 50-50 on the same keyboard and without changing its English layout into Turkish Layout or using some other complicated ways of writing different accented characters or symbols. A few Turkish Accented Characters are not available on the English Language
5、and Keyboard Layout. In a long Turkish document you might need hundreds of them. So, I needed a simple, easy, short solution and decided to test MACRO facility of WORD for this purpose. The clever program worked perfectly and I have been using Shortcut keys for Turkish Accented characters created by
6、 MACRO using ASCII codes of the characters for more than 10 years. Before WİNDOWS and MS WORD programs were introduced, even finding a Font Set with some foreign accented characters in it was very difficult and using just DOS we had to write every single command manually on a black screen. Then BATC
7、H files helped a lot which can be just for one command or a compilation of DOS commands following each other in one specific file of .BAT. When you run this file it executes all commands just after each other one by one behind the screens and produces the result on the screen. When in time technolog
8、y and programs improved enormously facilities increased a lot. Now, you can find FONT SETS containing accented characters and symbols for more than hundred languages and Operating Systems can manage lots of languages. But you still have to make some changes on default settings for different language
9、s. Now, I will try to explain a bit detailed and in a foreigners simple language how I produce Turkish Accented Characters and some Symbols so that understanding could be easier. Because of that it might be a little long, sorry about that. If this subject and method raises some interest, provides so
10、me help to some people and we receive demand I could explain some other ways for the same purpose. Some people might prefer and find easier this way or the other way. In fact they might be easier on finding codes if you know how to use the key elements. But I thought you should see and experiment th
11、is first. Here I wanted to point out how we started at first and then where we came to then where we can go further. I am using MICROSOFT WORD 2003 at the moment, but I used 95, 98, 2000 versions before. I believe the newer versions can still use the same feature with possibly some new additions. *
12、* I use TIMES NEW ROMAN as my main FONT for most of my works / documents (yours might be a different one of course), but for some Characters and Symbols you have to use other Font and Character Sets. These are the ACCENTED CHARACTERS I produce with just one click. : ; ; (dotted); (dotless); ; ; For
13、example after creating MACROs when I press : CTRL+C makes ; CTRL+SHIFT+C makes CTRL+O makes ; CTRL+SHIFT+O makes and so on. Using CTRL together with the original letter. For ex. (= TNR/U or WT : ALT+0231) Abbreviations I used : TNR = Times New Roman U = Unicode WW = Windows Western DWE = Dos Western
14、 Europe WT = Windows Turkish ASCII codes = created by “American Standard Code for Information Interchange“ ANSI codes = created by “American National Standards Institude“ I used Symbols of ( Symbol : Alt+0167), ( Symbol : Alt+0168), ( Symbol : Alt+0169), ( Symbol : Alt+0170) for “MyBridgeBook“ And p
15、repared some others as well which I use from time to time. Such as : Symbol : Alt+0191) (Symbol : Alt+0171) (Symbol : Alt+0172) (Symbol : Alt+0173 ) (Symbol : Alt+0174) (Symbol : Alt+0175) ( TNR/U : Alt+0187) (Windings : Alt+0252) (TNR/U : Alt+254) Big Dot (Symbol : Alt+0183) (TNR/U : Alt+167) (Windings : Alt+0171) Of course lots of other symbols, characters are possible
