I tried it over and over and it did not work. Why? Because TS is not a
teacher and can never be. His every explanation is half-ass.
I did a search on the web and discovered a website which explains all of
this crap. Barring going to an international keyboard via a region of the
world, you can use the ALT settings, but you first have to press ALT, hold
and then go to the NUMERIC pad for the numbers, something that TS
neglected
to point out.
Frankly, it is a fair amount of extra work to do this and only TS would
ever
bother to do it. But if he is going to explain it to others, he should at
least assume that no one knows anything about anything. That is what all
good teachers do, even those involved in graduate seminars.
Ed Dolan the Great has some familiarly with the French language, having
studied it for 2 years in college. I got to the point where I could read a
French newspaper, but that was about it. But I hated the language right
from
the beginning without fully knowing why. Then I went to France one day and
I
learned why I hated the French language. Hells Bells, I just plain hated
the
French people! They are a nation of swine. I hope the Muslims take over
the
place.
The Great Ed Dolan is fed up with learning anything new. He knows enough
for
one lifetime. The freaking French can take their language, accents and
all,
and stuff it up their *****.
