Can someone tell me how to make the accented e in for instance Padme..I know theres supposed to be a little dash above the e but I can't figure it out. DarthIshtar tried to explain it but I still don't get it. What she said to do didn't work for me. confused

I looked up the publisher, they're British, I think?
And they're a real company, doing Tad Willaims, even.

Still, I don't understand it. Don't hardcovers get published before paperback, usually?

EDIT: Okay, they have it listed in their program, too. With thwe 31th of July as 'available'.

I think, I'll just preorder it. [face_greedy]

You mean this: é or this: è , Vaders_Angel?

The first one, you hold down the Alt key while at the same time you type 130 then release the Alt key. For the second one, hold down the Alt key while at the same time typing 138 then release the Alt key.

You can find the codes for many characters here.

Lanna/Etain, many of the LOTF books were published in paperback at the same time as the hardcover(if the hardcover were ever published at all that is) so it's possible.

EDIT: It seems that the codes for those two do not work correctly. frustrated

It is?
Well, it is certainly highly unusla for the German market.
i preordered it at amazon and now wonder when it will arrive.



You can always copy&paste from an already posted fic, Angel.

It's weird indeed and I don't get it as well, but I think as long as they publish it, it's ok. Not like the 'Force Unleashed won't be avaible for PC' discussion (at the German board). tongue

Angel, you meand this è, right? For me there's a key on my keyboard on the right side, but I guess that won't help you much, right? So I would suggest to do what Lanna/Etain suggested above. I do that as well sometimes when I need the little "snake" over the n. wink

And Mel, could you change back to Lanna, please? batting praying It's horrible to write Lanna/Etain all the time. tongue

none of those alt+ insert number here tricks work for me for some reason, it just doesn't type anything. Oh well, guess it's just copy+paste for me lol.

Pre-order it, Etain. You know you wanna do it, it's ok...just like me buying it new instead of waiting, riiiiight? whistling

Maybe the codes are different for U.S. vs. other keyboards?

They are universal I believe. They don't always work on here though. I thikn the mods do something with the board codes every now and then just to mess with us. tongue
