҉ = Backwards Text in Windows

[FreqFace]

҉ okay but what is the point of this?

For those who can't get it to work, you know it's working because it happens in real-time, as you're typing.

Very intersting trick. I'll try it again...

[gigapixels Veteran]

Gah, that character has nothing to do with it. There's an invisible character next to it that some of you are picking up and some aren't that actually does the reversal.

[JackBauer87]

. This has got to be the gayest but most awesome thing ive ever seen.҉

[mezoko]

҉ Hey whats up folks, must not be a linux/firefox bug cool char, how od you make it?

[Mouldy Punk]

Copy the character from a post that it has worked in...that way you'll have a better chance at copying the hidden char with it aswell.

[mezoko]

Yeah but I like the char (not for it effects) and like to know how to type it without copying say if I was like at school

҉ Hello? Firefox in Linux here

[SuperHumanly]

҉ahhhhh this doesnt work on firefox....

[Mouldy Punk]

҉ahhhhh this doesnt work on firefox....

Yeah it does. You just didn't copy the hidden character along with the circle of commas.

This can't be stated enough.

It's not a bug or anything, it's a standard unicode control character required for international text display (e.g. Arabic text)

It's HEX value is 0x200F, it's opposite (left to right mark) is 0x200E, any operating system worth using supports Unicode (so that excludes 9x), and good app's should support it to (any web browser that doesn't isn't worth using, it would be horribly out of date)

Now, each OS has a different means of entering it though (OS X has a hex input mode, linux does as well i assume, and so does Windows, i couldn't get it to work though, and in trying to i broke accelerators system-wide)

Edit: Linux is apparently Ctrl+Shift+Hex and Windows is apparently Alt+Decimal with the leading 0, Windows one doesn't work for me, at all.
