Getting on Agaric's good side: how to put the cedilla under the c in Ben's name
Update: On Ubuntu, so long as third level selectors are turned on for the Alt key under System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts > Other Options, you can click Alt
+ ,
and then c
.
On a Mac running virtualbox, this is actually option+, and c.
On a Mac (and the code for a PC) follow steps buried deep in this IM log... I wish all my tech support were like this:

56:59where do i get the codes for all that nonsense?
i am incredibly honored and humbled that you put a cedilla in my name

and on a mac, you can get all the codes by going to System Preferences, International (in the Personal section), clicking on the Input Menu tab, and checking off Keyboard Viewer (and making sure at the bottom 'Show input menu in menu bar' is checked)
49:01
then you can show the keyboard viewer, and as you press random keys, see what special characters become available (mostly, hold down option and see what you see)so trial and error? thanks.
