[Alt]-[(NumPad:)0030]
Yeah, not quite dedicated keys. But once you've typed in one of each, you can copy and paste. Somewhat better text editors hopefully display them in some fashion (e.g, NotePad++ shows them as little black blobs labelled "FS" / "GS" / "RS" / "US").
- pwinnski 5y agoThat's a solution for MS Windows computers with extended keyboards only, so still not on my keyboard. The set of keyboards that lack numpads or are not connected to machines running MS Windows is much larger than the set of keyboards without commas. But yes, nothing is technically insurmountable. It's just hard to imagine a format that requires such efforts overtaking a format that does not.
