Hi Nancy!

 NB>>> Ah, but.... I only snagged that tagline... and surprisingly it
 NB>>> survived to be reused...  :)  I haven't a clue how to (or even if
 NB>>> my computer would let me) make most of those strange
 NB>>> characters... :)  But it is cute... <G>
 BM>> Clue: High or extended  ASCII characters.
 NB>> Oh, I knew that.... It's the actual doing thereof that is the
 NB>> issue... Not all of them are workable in my editor... :)
 BM> You've been taught well!  You might want to try a different editor:
 BM> WordPad tends to do some things differently from NotePad.
 NB> I'm using MicroEMACS 3.8b for DOS.... works just fine for most of
 NB> what I do...  And I've been able to cut and paste some
 NB> high/extended ASCII characters if I really do need to use them...
 NB>  And I can make the degree symbol.... ø  See...?  <G>

<applause!!>  Same process and can create others.  Though sometimes 
not-quite-as-expected results: the pi character (ALT_227, or at least 
for the current mode) will create a <CR><LF> combination.  (Carriage 
return --> back to Column 1, Line Feed --> drop down one line.)  So 
[pi]r^2 becomes 
r^2 -- oops!
