I have the normal place I go to for alt codes (usefulshortcuts.com), but Im trying to
write characters in Romanian, and Ive looked and looked, but I cant find the s with the
tail under it, the a that looks like it has a contact lens on it, and the t with the
tail. Does anyone know how I can can make those without downloading a whole keyboard?

TIA

EDIT: I totally cant believe I wrote "Romian" last night. Wow, fixed.

Why not change your keyboard? Using alt codes all the time sucks. And if you use windows, you shouldn't have to download anything.

I found this site: http://romanian.typeit.org/

Also, you can change the language under the Regional & Language settings in the Control Panel if using Windows or if not look for a keyboard area where you can change the layout of your keyboard.

That first site is AWESOME, Crush, thank you!

FYI: I do have Arabic installed on my system because thats an entire alphabet. If I ever
am really focusing on Romanian or another language where Ill be typing in it a lot then I
know how and will install that keyboard, but for my purposes just the codes or that site
is all Id need

Thanks!

FYI, another great site to write in different alphabets without changing your keyboard can be found here:

Apparently for some of the Romanian characters, Microsoft implemented them incorrectly (Wikipedia says it was fixed in Vista). To fix that someone created a keyboard driver (which is what that site I linked to talks about: how to install it).

Here's the article.

I like the Typeit site better for its functionality and setup (plus its not in French!),
but Lexilogos has a ton more languages. Soooo...they are both saved as favorites.

Its pretty to write in Georgian and Tibetan even though I have no idea what Im typing.

Thank you guys
