Symbols and accented characters
TIP The symbols and accented characters are grouped according to their
similarity to the corresponding key. In some cases, the symbol is related to the
alternate character on the key, not the letter. For example, to type a ¢ or other
currency symbol, press
Sym + h . Why? Because the alternate character on the H
key is $.
TIP If you press the wrong key, press Backspace to return to the full list of
symbols and accented characters. You can then press another key.
