Old English and Old norse use a number of letter characters that are not on
a modern keyboard, but are still included in most modern fonts. If, for
example you want to type a thorn (þ) instead of a "th", all you have to do
is hold down the alt key, and type 0254.  When you let go, the character you
want will appear.  Try these:
 press alt_____

Æ - 0198
æ - 0230
Ð - 0208
ð - 0240
Þ - 0222
þ - 0254
