Can anyone write a £ sign?? The phone help says how but I can't get it to work.

I've searched Esato for help but can't find anything

in the numeric part of the keyboard, make the special character sign (a vertical line from top to bottom : |) then draw a pound sign with a single horizontal line through it.

good luck.

In the numeric segment, draw a line from the bottom up, then a capital L and finally a line crossing it.

Cheers,

check out help function -> handwriting recognition -> scroll down, there you will find all symbols like the POUND sign you're looking for.

But can anyone write an underscore? Been trying for ages with no success Help on the phone seems to indicate it is written with 4 dashes but that gives me an extra-long dash. :S

Zaphod,
To do an underscore draw a single line upwards (for symbol mode) and then a line from left to right followed by a dot to the right of the line.

Like this : First | then _.

While we are at this.. is there a way to write a lower case 'L' and a space immediately afterwards? I always end up writing a 'T' instead

Yes, you can write the lower case l and then write the space directly under it.

Can anyone tell me how I can delete a full word at one stroke? The only way I've managed to delete is one letter at a time?!?!?!

Cheers

the easiest way i've found to do it is to use the virtual keyboard, u can select the whole word on there then delete close the keyboard and u can start writing again, tried highlighting words whilst just writing but it always just deletes a letter

Thanks to epscilon for the cool trick! The "L" followed by space problem had bugged me for a long while already and I find it irritating that I always have to pause when I write any word that ends with "L" such as "will".

To perform highlighting in jot, tap on the position to start the highlighting and pause for a short while (without lifting the stylus of course), before starting the highlight.
