Handy html symbol codes

These are html codes I use all the time. To insert one of these codes, just hold down your ALT key while typing the code into your number keypad. (Be sure your NumLock is off). So, to make an em dash, just hold down the alt key and hit 0151 on your keypad. Voila! An em-dash!

ALT + 0178 = ² (superscript 2, squared number)
ALT + 0179 = ³ (superscript 3, cubed number)
ALT + 0153 = ™ (trademark symbol)
ALT + 0181 = ยต (micron symbol)
ALT + 0151 = — (em dash, my personal favorite!)
ALT + 0177 = ± (plus or minus symbol)
ALT + 0174 = ® (registered trademark symbol)
ALT + 0169 = © (copyright symbol)
ALT + 0176 = ° (degree symbol)
ALT + 0149 = • (bullet)
ALT + 0160 = (non-breaking space)
