Hi guys, I copied this Mₙ = 2ⁿ − 1 from some web site, does anyone know how to produce this in notepad or the like ?

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.

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

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

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).

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?

This mysterious service is back in operation for me again. I had my preferences set to receive it but it generally sputters out after about 9 months to a year. Then just stops. Then starts, then stops. Just started receiving the email again. Just one of those grand mysteries of life, I guess.

I think I've missed some or had them arrive much later in the day some days than usual, but it hasn't been on the regular. More like one here or there.

I posted but then my tummy suggested that I might have go back to bed, and I decided I didn't need a ton of replies ringing my phone right now. Sorry.

Well, if it is any consolation, I'm stuck for weeks now on a H264 stream issue from a Hikvision DVR.

Groucho has since annexed my lap, and is purring so I don't have the heart to kick him off my lap yet.
He'll get grouchy with me in about 30 minutes and get down. He always does.

Sounds like me. Our Aimee likes making biscuits, and my lap is her preferred kitchen.

Sorry, but this sounds like an issue with your email delivery. Perhaps something to do with their spam/junk mail filtering?
I get the newsletter and Insider like clockwork, and forum reply messages pretty quickly.

Thanks, Probably something with my email delivery. I checked the spam folder and it was not in there. If it is getting rejected (bounced by the email provider) I won't see it. But all my other emails seem to be arriving ok. Just wanted to see if anyone else experienced unexplained outages.

This is likely to be the culprit. Some of them are rather aggressive, then boast none of their customers receive spam. But they never mention they go too far in the other direction.
Does that provider by any chance have a name that starts with "G"...?
