    I don't think I am confused: Alt+plus+0165 and U+0165 are quite clear.

    I had forgotten that paragraph, but it cannot be true that it has been
    tested (thoroughly) on Win 95 or 98.
    Here I have tried it only on various OS's that I have via Virtual PC (Win
    95, 98, Me, 2000 etc) but in that special and limited environment I find
    that not even the usual ALT+numpad works, never mind QuickUnicode.
    However I am not surprised at your results. The pre-NT OS's just don't
    accomodate Unicode.
