Hi 2beginner

You can always use the operating system shortcuts that work in all programs.

For the copyright symbol ©:

Mac: Option + G

Windows: Alt + 0169 on the Numeric keypad (numlock must be turned on)

    In early days of text programs there was a standard called ascii code ( numbers) that represent symbols. It is still in use and those are the numbers you see displayed to get certain symbols.

    In the case of Trevor's numbers there is no such thing as a copywrite. What he means is copyright.

    Legally speaking, or grammatically, there are playwrights ( sorta like shipwrights). They 'build' ships, or write plays ( create plays).

    And there are those who can write a specific play. That is referred to as play writing.

    "I am currently play writing, " and If you do that for a living you may be referred to as a 'playwright' . Shakespeare was a playwright.

    There is no such thing as a copywrite.

    It is rather a copyright.  And that is the symbol you are getting, regardless of the uninspired definition.
