Re: Forests in DC
Hmm - maybe Japanese OSs are anti-umlaut... I do remember once upon a time when that worked (with my old computers in America), but I had assumed they just stopped this function for some reason at some time... Of course, I had only remembered the codes for the happy faces

Re: Forests in DC
I end up using the codes quite a bit for text formatting as I create a lot of documents that go back and forth between MS Office and OpenOffige.org which handle some things slightly differently, mostly hyphens.

Re: Forests in DC
By the way, it is funny how often german words are used as titles for Japanese games and titles. They certainly also ignore the Umlaute, however...

Re: Forests in DC
Certain German words have found their way into Japanese... a few I can think of are:
Arbeit (means "part-time job" here, though) Atelier (cool way to say laboratory or studio?) ...oops, that's all I can think of for now, but there are more  Damn, Manikus has the coolest avatar!! I need a lot more posts before I can get that, though...

Re: Forests in DC
Atelier is French...
Although germans use that word as well.
