Well, wisdom is such a subjective thing ... :^) However, my two cents worth is - please don't use them. They go really crazy on my system. For example, your three characters which resemble small [/|\] characters, on my system, the "/" gets thrown away because it can't figure out what to do with it. The "|" character becomes an apostrophe and the "\" becomes a grave accent. My personal non-favorite non-standard character, however, is the little circle at the top of the line. (I am guessing this is a degree symbol.) It really messes up the look of things by the time I get it. Oh well, you asked. :^) Sandy
