    Re: [NavList 13971] Degree symbol input by Gary Lapook, and

    [NavList 13966] angle symbols. was: A fluke of 0.0 intercept... by George Huxtable


    Dear George and Gary,


    Thank you for your very kind advices and recommendations.

    However, from my end-point things might look a bit more complicated.

    A degree symbol is displayed on my key-board, and when I use it, it will key a fine degree sign � such as right now on the NavList "reply to message" window. (I am getting all NavList Posts in and out trough the Web http://www.fer3.com).

    Now, what really puzzles me it that, although I just typed and proof read that the � symbol is OK on my window,

    - sometimes it will look OK when published by Frank's server (e.g. the last note in my recent post [ NavList #13964] which "triggered" this new thread), and

    - sometimes, with exactly the same Web browser (I'm generally using OPERA) it will look like a black diamond - fortunately not a hissing one - with a question mark inside (e.g. my recent post [ NavList #13961])

    So, for this somewhat "minor" issue - I do agree with you on that one, George - I am remaining really Puzzled, especially since ...

    ... Oh ! By the way I forgot to tell you that Skype is NOT installed on my Laptop.

    It then REALLY makes things really harder to understand ...


    Best Regards and

    Thanks again

    Kermit

    Antoine M. "Kermit" Cou�tte
