On windows 7 (and I believe most other windows versions) you can just use control+alt+1 to get the ‘¡’-symbol. I think this is easier than using ALT-codes.

[...] al final de una frase, pero, como el propio sitio web de Open Sarcasm se encarga de señalar, en español se puede usar emparejado con un signo de cierre de exclamación, que se usaría para abrir la frase sarcástica: !Vaya invento más bueno esto de la puntuación [...]

I’m using Microsuck Winblows XP Pro SP3.
Pressing alt+0161 displays the “¡” character.
Pressing alt+173 displays the “¡” character.

Clearly there is a need for both Unicode entries to be displayed here as evidenced by the separate codes for XP and Vista/7¡

XP just plain won’t show “¡” if you type in alt+173¡

On some versions of Linux, using Alt-GR (The one on the right side of the spacebar) + 1 will do the trick. Although typing one character with 7 keystrokes (CTRL+SHIFT, press u00a1) is much more linuxish than using only 2¡

I can confirm that:

hold CTRL+SHIFT, press u00a1

works for Ubuntu. Although ¡ looks remarkably like i with many fonts.

For Ubuntu (might work in other Debian distros, not sure though) press and hold Ctrl+Shift, then type “u00a1″ then release Ctrl+shift. This will not give you the open sarcasm mark¡

I’ll look into linux when I get some time and post back here when I have a solution.

Glorious and most powerful webmaster, I suggest you add Blackberry to the list of supported systems. Holding B and scrolling with the trackpad/trackball indeed works for a Blackberry with a keyboard. I would be curious to know how you can do it on a Storm.
