Eternity symbol

[Fred Katzel]

Hi

I wonder if anyone know of a simple equation for the eternity
symbol? The equation should be one that would show increase size
of the eternity symbol. I'm wanting to use it in my solor system program to
simulate a star becoming a supernova.

I have never heard of the eternity symbol. What is it?

Do you mean the "Infinity" symbol? It's CHR$(236) in the US code page "‡" (it looks like the digit 8 on it's side).

Added: hmmm... it looks like I can enter it in the Edit Message window here, but the UBB software translates it into two symbols! Try it in PB/DOS but holding down the ALT key, and pressing 2,3,6 on the numeric keypad (you'll need to do it fairly quickly).
