Keyboard for dummies.

I'm such an idiot...
I was pulling my hair out trying to find how to write a heart with my laptop keyboard...
It's freaking easy:
Press the fn key alongside alt, then press L, which is where the side num 3 key is (as opposed to the numericals at the top) since my keyboard is in spanish...

Cute... I also "discovered" that if you go to "all programs-accesories-system tools-character map" there's a... map... of characters... your computer supports, that you can copy/paste.

I really feel like a fool now.

U+0460 = Ѡ am I too ecchi or does that one look like a butt? XD
U+263A = ☺
U+263B = ☻
U+263C = ☼
U+2640 = ♀
U+2642 = ♂
U+2660 = ♠
U+2663 = ♣
U+2666 = ♦
U+266A = ♪
U+266B = ♫

Okay, duh, I really need more dummy instructions cause it won't work. I don't even have an FN key.

Are you sure you don't have it? XD It's supposed to be located at the left bottom corner, keys from left to right: ctrl - fn - win - alt - space bar
Another way: use the "block num" (or "Num lock/LK) key, then press alt 3 (with the number 3 that's not on top but on the side... they should be visible cause they might be of another color than the normal keys, or enclosed in little squares like mine are), I'm not sure about this one cause I didn't try it though...
Did you find the character map? that's easy too... although a bit time consuming...
