Macintosh Plus: How to Get the "Propeller" Symbol


I want to generate the "propeller" character on my keyboard, but it's
produced with the Control-Q key combination, and my Macintosh Plus has no
Control key. Is there another way to generate that character directly on
the Macintosh Plus?

We checked through the character sets of all of our fonts and found that
symbol only in Chicago under Control-Q. Short of re-defining a font in
ResEdit or buying a font-creation product, you can type the character on
another Macintosh and save the character in a document that you can
transfer (by disk or modem) to your computer. Then, copy the character and
paste it into your document.
