Writing symbols and extended characters
All symbols and extended characters begin with the stroke in the
Graffiti writing area of your PC companion:
When the Symbol Shift is active, a slanted shift symbol appears in the
lower-right corner of the screen. The next stroke that you make creates
the symbol or extended character.
Writing accented characters
To create accented characters, draw the stroke normally used to create
the letter, followed by an accent stroke. Graffiti writing then adds the
accent to the letter.
For example, the following diagram shows the strokes required to
draw an accented “e.”
