When you look at a Mac keyboard for the first time, you will see the usual setup - A through Z, numbers 1 through 0, plus all of your standard symbols such as speech marks, question marks, commas, and full stops. Plus, let's not forget the currency symbol for your country such as the US dollar, the British Pound, and the Euro. This is obviously not unique to a Mac keyboard, but to all keyboards for all operating systems.

But did you also realize that there are other symbols available on the keyboard, which are not so readily visible? Ones that are hidden away, but can be brought to the surface with the aid of a keyboard shortcut? This is not very difficult if you know which buttons to press, in order to achieve the desired icon. You just have to remember them or make a list and keep it nearby.

The most important button on the keyboard in all of this is the Option key. This is the one on the bottom row, three keys from the left. If you hold this button down first, and then press another button, the hidden icon will be displayed. Some of them will be really important and necessary. Others not so much. Just quickly try them all out and make a note of the ones which are the most useful to you.

For example, the Copyright symbol. This would be necessary if you wanted to assert your copyright protections and you needed to type the symbol next to a name. But how to get the symbol? It's certainly not shown on the keyboard. Glaring omission? Hardly. Just hold down the Option key and then the letter G. The Copyright symbol will then appear.

Another source of special characters is by opening an application such as a Word Processing doc-ument. Then in the top Mac menu, choose Edit, followed by 'Special Characters'. This opens up a Pandoras Box of emoji and more special characters than you can shake a stick at.

You don't have to do keyboard shortcuts if you don't want to. A software app can take care of it instead, and may even save you time, depending on your point of view.

The software is called 'Characters' (catchy eh?) and you can get the download link at http://getcharacters.com/. Unfortunately it is not free - it is $2.99, but that may be excellent value if you will need to access these shortcuts on a regular basis.

So this just goes to show that Mac users have a wide range of options - and they are not always advertised. It pays to dig around and see what sprouts up.

Using the Codes

Windows assigns a numeric code to different accented letters, other foreign characters and special mathematical symbols. For instance the code for lower case á is 0225, and the code for capital Á is 0193. The ALT key input is used to manually insert these letters and symbols by calling the numeric code assigned to them.

To Use the Codes

1. Place your cursor in the location where you wish to insert a special character.
2. Activate the numeric key pad on the right of the keyboard by pressing Num Lock (upper right of keyboard). The Num Lock light on the keyboard will indicate that the numeric key pad is on.
   NOTE: You must use the numeric key pad; if you use the number keys on the top of the keyboard, the characters will not appear. If you are on a laptop or computer without a separate numeric keypad one of the other methods is recommended.
3. While pressing down the ALT key, type the four-digit code on the numeric key pad at the right edge of the keyboard. The codes are 'case sensitive.' For instance, the code for lower-case á is ALT+0225, but capital Á is ALT+0193.
   NOTE: If you have the International keyboard activated, you will only be able to input codes with the ALT key on the left side of the keyboard.
4. Release the ALT key. The character will appear when the ALT key is released.
   NOTE: You must include the initial zero in the code. For example to insert á(0225) you must type ALT+0225, NOT ALT+225.
