If you use the Unicode Hex Input keyboard layout: press the Option key and enter four hex digits to specify the hex code of any glyph. Also, under any layout, when used with other keys, the Option key produces special symbols. The Keyboard Viewer, which users can add to the Input menu in the International pane of System Preferences, shows which keys generate each symbol. I do not know if ½ is included under what layout. Under X11, this is as simple as COMPOSE+1+2. I do not know how this can be configured on the Mac. On Wednesday 04 March 2009 10:56:38 Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:

What the combination to get ½ on a mac?
Sadly, there doesn't seem to be a keyboard shortcut; I inserted it via the Character Palette.
