Get my keyboard to write backwards?

What do you mean by "backwards"? Do you mean you want the text on the screen to write from right to left instead of left to right? Do you mean you want the horizontal mirror of the text to show up on the screen?

Like looking at it through a mirrior. As in an E written like a 3.

Does that make sense?

Hold a mirror up to your monitor?? It may seem logical, but this will not work if you hold your keyboard up to the mirror.

srsly, I don't get what your going after.

If you want the text to appear backwards, such as 'E' like '3', as far as I know you would have to create a new font where the letters are all backwards. Then whenever you use that font, the resulting letters would appear backwards.

I'll leave it then. I only wanted it for one letter. I thought there'd be some way to hold a button down and do it, like with shift, but i guess not.

Thanks anyhow.

Well if it's just one letter, you can always take an image of the letter and mirror it in an image editor. Then you can either import it into your document or include it in your webpage.

I have a suggestion. Look in for letters from different alphabets that may look like the letter you want, backwards. Like this backwards R I use on MSN:

Я

In fact, maybe someone will know where to look if you specify what letter you want to mirror.

R's the letter i want. What alphabet is it from.

Russian or something. You can just copy and paste the one I posted when you want to use it.

The odds of the one letter I have being the one you needed were 1/52 (capitals and lowercase). How lucky!

FYI, the HTML code for 'Я' is '&#<i></i>1071;'.

Yeah, the Я is the Cyrillic "Ya" sound.

You're not going to make the 'R' backwards in every post now, are you?
