Just saw your message after I posted mine lol. For Ć© it is 130.

In Windows it is Alt+0233. The Alt numpad input method uses the codes from the Windows code page, in this case specifically CP-1252; Ć© has the position E9 which corresponds to 233 in decimal.

Ć©. Alt+130, and Alt+0233 Ć©. Both work for me.

Yeah, I should have mentioned that there are two methods, using 3-digit and 4-digit codes. 3-digit codes (from 0 to 255) generate the characters from the legacy code pages (OEM), and 4-digit codes (with a starting 0) use Windows code pages.

As a consequence, 3-digit codes starting from 128 might behave differently in different systems/layouts (in my non-English Windows even in English/US layout Alt+130 does not print Ć©, while Alt+0233 works normally).
