In fact, I'll create a character today.

Or maybe not. I might go to sleep instead.

That is to say, for the Englishmen, as I said before, I may just become emperor of the (french) world.

I'd have to think that my character, Richard Seguin, should be one of the most powerful french characters fairly soon.

Although, with his crossbow... that very well might make him the most powerful already.

Crossbows rare in the French Cantr?

I think I shall create a character in the french place today.

Sounds like fun.

Look for a guy who speaks in badly spelled Quebeque french.

Too many people speak bad french in Cantr.
Myself included.

I can only speak for myself, but I know for a fact that my spelling is terrible.

However, the game system in Cantr has a good deal of blatant grammatical error's in it aswell.

I really don't know how they put up with it (the bad french speakers like myself, and the game mistakes, I mean)

Of course, I doesn't help that I only have an english keyboard.

That can easily be remedied. You can just press run under the start menu and open your char map ..that will allow you to make certain figures. Like this one.. é , the command for that is ALT+0233.

Wow. I had no idea. Nobody tells me anything.

I should really figure out how to work this computing thing.

Thanks!

Odd. I use ALT+130 for é.

There's also one involving pressing shift that I don't remember.
Maybe more?

If you have Windows XP, all you have to do is go to Control Panel, Language Options, Add other languages, Details... and don't forget to turn on the Language Bar. Then you just press Alt+Shift to alternate between keyboards.

If you'd rather waste time pressing all those other keys, then:
0233 = é
0232 = è
0234 = ê
0251 = û
0244 = ô
0226 = â
0224 = à
0231 = ç
0249 = ù

And I think that's all in the French language.
Désenchantée
Fière
Bête
Goût
Garçon
Là-bas


I can't think of words for the others... I'm not even sure there's â in French. I've been studying Romanian a lot lately, so I can't remember. :shock:

Edit: Oh, yeah... le gâteau... mais oui... et ôter. And that other letter that everyone just writes oe for. Soeur. And î... ï... ä ö... Okay, these aren't all in the French language... I'm just getting some pretty funky letters out of this French keyboard.

Thanks.
