No, you're wrong about 'all those signs'.  Several of them do indeed
have keyboard equivalents, except that they're hard to find as they
aren't in the US-English-language-based keyboard layout.  There are also
several non-English-language  ANSI characters included, for easy
reference.  (By no means are all of them covered.)  These
non-English -language ANSI characters are still in use and are more
easily accessible in other language keyboard layouts.

Insert F4 dumps jaws.  I guess insert num row 4says all those signs that
today are partial history, partial fantasy and wishful thinking.
