Well, for example in Adobe fonts, ASCII #255 is a carot like mark that
is used in some eastern European languages and in Semitic language
transliterations. There is no keystroke sequence that will enable a
Mac to print it, but for example Word allows you to print the character
by entering option-command-q. The lower left box which usually displays
the page number changes. It is highlighted with the word CODE. By typing
255 and a <cr>, the hatcheck is printed to the screen.
