Mathematical notation

I just copied that and pasted it into notepad, and it looks the same. But if you are writing direct into notepad you will need to select the special characters from the Windows "Character Map" accessory: e.g Z° = ±¿¼.

alt+253 gives 2 superscript so I imagine there are other alt sequences to do what you want.

Subscript n is Unicode number U+2099. Superscript 2 is Unicode number U+00B2

Is there a link?

Word processors can easily do super/subscript using hotkeys combos and have a equation editor for more complex equations - LibreOffice is free and has editor called Math (I've not used it, so this is not a recommendation).

Sorry Pete, it's not really something I have had much experience with other than my previous response.

It's very old school, but try using charmap. It's built into Windows, and can be accessed using Start, Run, charmap.

Is this just for poops and giggles (copy pasting only) or you plan on taking this seriously? If it's the latter, get a LaTeX editor for Windows. You have to learn a syntax, but it's easier than always going back and forth to charmap. If it's just for poops and giggles, notepad copies and pastes superscripts and subscripts just fine for me on Win10.

No you are going about that backwards. (From other post.)

Someone or several someones perhaps even you will attempt to display something in the future which documents what your stuff does. What does that something consist of exactly? A text file? A word file? A static html page? Text that gets displayed in an app? That drives how the content that you want gets created. After you figure it out then you figure out how to create it. Lets say it is a simple (ascii 7) text file. Then you can NOT document it as you documented in your post. Why did I stipulate the character set? Because that is the most simple form of a text file. To show the complication you can (maybe) create a 'text' file which shows the form you proposed but then someone that attempts to look at it would need to know which character set to attempt to display it. A 'simple text file' does not include that information.

Why not use Word and the save the documentation as a PDF?
