I just tried to make a stick figure on a topic here, but it came up with, well, symbols. So I wanted to post how to make them here.

First, a cross thing.

Type this:

-l-

Will turn into: l

Oh, and to do a stretched out one, type this:

-l--l-

Will turn into: l—l

And, you can cross stuff out with it too, to do so, type this:

-l-crossed-l-

Will turn into: l-crossed-l

Change the ‘crossed’ to whatever you like.


Second, lyne.

Type this:

___
Will turn into:

Third, a mini up arrow.

Type this:

^^^

Will turn into: ^

  • ô = Hold alt then press 1, 4, 7 in that order on the number pad, and let go of alt when you press seven.
  • You can also do § by holding alt press 2, then 1, and let go of alt when you press one.
  • ƒ = Alt + 1, 5, 9, let go of alt when you press nine.
  • £ = Alt + 1, 5, 6, let go of alt when you press six.
  • Ü = Alt + 1, 5, 4 let go of alt when you press four.
  • There are several other symbols to do by pressing alt and then a couple random numbers on the num pad, including ¥, Æ, ², æ, Ä, ì, and º.

I will edit this when I feel like I want to be productive, probably 1 1/2 hours from now.

Oh, and thanks PlatinumIce.

Ok, ok, ok, I feel like being productive now. When I completely update it, BUMP.

Not completely updated, but BUMPeth.
