image between Text Stretch, which stretches the text to fill more of the screen,
and Regular. Text Stretch is the default. While Regular is selected, a graphics

Enabling the Eurocurrency Symbol
Your computer can generate the Eurocurrency symbol when pressing the
Alt Gr+4, 5, e, or u key combinations. The key combination for your computer is
dependent on the keyboard for your country and the keyboard language settings
in the operating system. On keyboards without the Alt Gr (alternate graphics)
key, use the Alt key to the right of the spacebar.
