I see. What other combos does it support?

		Yeah, looks like they developed separately from Compose combos.

Option is used extensively for non-Ascii characters, a comprehensive list would be quite long.

A few of the easier to remember:

option + 0 for degrees º

option + u for to place an umlaut over the next typed character (when it's a valid combination, anyway) ëüä

option + c for cedilla ç

Interesting. Kind of reinventing Compose key combos. I wonder why they didn't just reuse Compose ones from FreeBSD.

		This dates back to the beginning of the Mac, so it's almost 10 years older than FreeBSD. (I'm unfamiliar with other UNIX compose key tooling that may have predated it.)

I use µ for microns or micrometers µm. Option + m.

Also if you need ad-hoc bullets, just reach for option + 8.

The difficulty in accessing symbols like these is one of my (I'm sure correctable) hang-ups when using Linux — Arch, btw.
