[tlug] special characters

[Brett Robson <b-robson@example.com>]

Hi all,

I thought I had learnt this in a unix course a million years ago 
but I can't find anything info telling me how, or maybe I dreamt it.

Is there any way of entering characters into vi using their hex 
(or dec) value? eg 89 to get one of those fancy 'e's with two 
dots on top.


Thanks
Brett
