The same way this works: 你好. It is just Unicode underneath it all.

No need to worry about that. Everything will be taken care of for you while you sleep. Try not to leave anything important open.

For ages we used to type in special character using ALT+hex-unicode-value... The problem is with the A-F values that normally assigned to menu items... There was the option of 0 with the decimal value, but never worked for large values... A good idea to move it from ALT to ⊞

Hmmm. I remember it as ALT-decimal(numeric pad). PITA if you forgot num-lock.

It was added in 1709, but only if you were using the US keyboard layout. 
The rest of us had to resort to editing the registry:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Input\Settings]
EnableExpressiveInputShellHotkey (DWORD) = 1

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
I also noticed that WindowsKey + ; actually works also (in addition to WindowsKey + .)

Interesting key name.
Seems to me that you're not being very expressive at all if you have to use pictograms rather than, y'know, actual words, to converse.
I'm very anti-emoticon, in case anyone still hasn't guessed. All they're doing is contribute to the dumbing down of society as a whole...something it doesn't need help with.

Well, actually, squids have 10 arms => !octopus.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
