Re: [Blind-Computing] the A tilda
No. a acute is a different symbol than a tilda. If you have the US international keyboard layout set to type a tilda press left alt and type 0227 on the numpad, then release alt and there it is. BTW, a acute is alt+0225 so you can compare these now.

Re: [Blind-Computing] the A tilda
Hi Randy; I don't have the " A tilda " in my XP symbols list either. Hopefully someone will post with the keystroke using the number pad. Take care.
