title: Sending specials characters to the serial display from the arduino uno
body: <p>I want to know if the Uno can send special symbols like of a sun or of an umbrella, via serial, to the display of my laptop.  For example, at: <a href="http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/search.htm?q=rain&amp;preview=entity" rel="nofollow">http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/search.htm?q=rain&amp;preview=entity</a>, it shows an umbrella, entitled "weather, rainy", with character code: U+2602.  I found out that the Uno can send the degree symbol for temperature with this: Serial.print(char(176));  Is there someway that it can also send the umbrella or other specials symbols?<br>
  Thank you,
  Steve</p>
